Scams


Federal Officer Impersonation

Consumers have reported that scam callers are identifying themselves as a federal officer and typically instruct people to wire or mail “settlement” money or to assist law enforcement with an investigation against a bank. These calls are fraudulent, and call recipients should hang up immediately. Federal agencies do not call or email individuals threatening them to send money or to use their personal money as “bait” for a federal investigation.


Scam E-Mails Claiming to Be Seacost Bank

Consumers have reported fraudulent email messages circulating that appear to be from Seacoast Bank, asking recipients to provide personal banking information for “enhanced security.” These emails are not legitimate. Always verify the legitimacy of any communications from your bank before clicking links or responding to emails.
