If you receive a fraudulent or suspicious e-mail that uses the Virginia Credit Union logo, name, or web site:

  • Do not reply to the e-mail or click any links in the e-mail message.
     
  • Forward it to us immediately at reportabuse@vacu.org.
    Do not remove or retype the subject line, or change the e-mail in any way.
     
  • After forwarding the e-mail, immediately delete it from your inbox.
     
  • If you clicked on a link in an e-mail and provided any personal or account information, notify the credit union immediately.
     
  • If you clicked on a link in an e-mail and provided your Home Banking Logon ID or Security Code (password), please change your Logon ID and Security Code immediately. Log into the Home Banking, go to the Options section of Home Banking navigation, select Personal Information, then choose 'Change Logon ID' or 'Change Security Code' from the menu at the top of the page.

If you receive a fraudulent or suspicious e-mail from another company or financial institution:
