Security Alerts
Phony Fraud Messages Targeting USSFCU Members: We have been made aware that some members are receiving fraudulent text messages and phone calls claiming to be from the "US Senate FCU Fraud Dept." These messages typically ask if you made a scheduled transfer for $2,000 and instruct you to reply "Yes" or "No." These messages are NOT from USSFCU.
Phone Call Scams: We have identified instances of scammers contacting our members, falsely claiming to be from our "fraud department," and calling from a phone number that appears to be USSFCU. These individuals may mention unusual account activity to trick you into a false sense of security.
Please be advised that USSFCU will never contact you out of the blue for any account information or access details. If you receive such a call, hang up immediately and dial our main number at 800.374.2758.
Phishing Emails: Several phishing emails have been reported, posing as USSFCU and claiming that members' phone numbers have been disassociated from their online accounts. These emails request online banking credentials. USSFCU will never send unsolicited emails asking for your username, password, one-time verification code, PIN, or any other identification details. If you receive such an email, do not provide any information, and independently call 800.374.2758 or log into your account at my.ussfcu.org to verify transactions.
Spoofing Alerts: We have identified instances of scammers spoofing our TeleAction phone number, posing as USSFCU in texts and phone calls alerting members of charges on their accounts. TeleAction will never initiate a call or text to our members. If you are uncertain about any call or text you are receiving, do not provide any information, hang up, and dial our main line at 800.374.2758.
USSFCU will never send unsolicited emails, calls, or texts to ask for:

Or any other identification details.
If you receive this or any similar message:
- Do NOT respond.
