Travel Tips

Before traveling, make sure your finances are in order. When there is an unusual amount of fraud occurring in a foreign country, the Credit Union sometimes blocks transactions from that country. Other financial institutions sometimes block foreign transactions as well, so you may want to consider the following tips before you go.

Here are a few tips that will help you have a smooth trip:

• Call the Credit Union (and all other Banks and Card providers you may have) to notify them of your travel plans. Contact the credit union 24-48 hours in advance.
• Be prepared to provide; mode of transportation, state or countries you will be visiting, the date you plan to leave and return.
• Ask all your financial institutions about any foreign country restrictions. Find out how and where you can access their services.
• Determine which accounts you will withdraw from, and how you can receive those funds (ATM, Wire Transfer, etc).
• Review your records to ensure that you will have the proper funds available as you travel (make sure your bills are in order, too).
• Make a list of all your credit and debit card numbers, and the phone numbers of all your financial institutions.
• Keep your lists and plans in a safe place, and give a copy to a trusted family member or friend.
• Simply call all your financial institutions before you leave. They can work with you and take the necessary steps to ensure that your funds are available as you travel.

Phishing

Phishing or Spoofing is the most common type of online fraud. Fraudsters may send you an email that looks like it has come from OneAZ Credit Union. These emails ask you to go to a website through a link within the email. The website may also look like OneAZ Credit Union's website, and there you will be asked to provide your confidential information such as your account number, password, Social Security Number, ATM/Debit or Credit Card number, PIN or other information that only you need to know. Often these emails threaten to close accounts or claim that your information has been compromised. Sometimes fraudulent emails claim that you have won money, a prize, or a gift. The fraudsters' goal is to make you act quickly without thinking about what you're doing.

It is very important to remember that OneAZ Credit Union never asks for personal information through text message, email or by phone.

Vishing (Voice Phishing) is a form a fraud that tries to get your personal information through phone calls, such as credit card numbers, Personal Identification Numbers (PINs), bank account numbers, Social Security Numbers and other confidential information. The caller will claim to be from a financial institution that needs your personal information. Sometimes the call will be an automated recording requesting personal information, and other times it may be a live caller. They will often claim that your accounts are suspended, that your payments are overdue and other similar claims that are made to scare you and cause you to act without thinking.
