Protecting our customers and communities has always been important to us. American Bank & Trust is hosting free Community Fraud Awareness Events to share information about common scams, current fraud trends, and ways you can help protect yourself, and your finances.
Enjoy a complimentary meal while hearing from AB&T team members about fraud trends, real-world examples, and steps you can take to stay safer from scams.
Fraud attempts continue to evolve and often come in the form of spoofed phone calls, fake text messages, impersonation scams, and other approaches designed to create a sense of urgency. Our goal is to provide information and resources that can help you recognize potential fraud and know what to do if you encounter it.
