Whether you’ve just enrolled with Zelle® or have been an active user for a while, there are a few tips you should always keep in mind to ensure you’re being safe when sending money.
- Using Zelle® is similar to handing someone your money, so be sure to only send money to people that you know and trust.
- Beware of Zelle® payment scams. Keep in mind that if something seems too good to be true, it probably is.
- Treat Zelle® like you’d treat cash.
Neither Clearview FCU nor Zelle® offers a protection program for authorized payments made with Zelle®. If you aren’t sure you’ll get what you paid for, you should use another payment method with purchase protection, such as a credit card.
Also, remember, Clearview FCU will never request that you use Zelle® to send money as a test or to avoid a fraud event and will never ask for any verification code or digital banking credentials.
