  • Central Willamette Credit Union employees will never call, e-mail or text asking you for your online banking passwords or secure access codes; do not share this information with anyone.
  • If someone does call you to ask for information saying they are from Central Willamette Credit Union, tell them you are going to call back. Then call us at 541.928.4536. Do not call the number given to you by a scammer over the phone or email; it will call the scammer back.
  • Give only to established charities.
  • Read your monthly statements to spot charges you didn’t authorize. With online banking and e-statements this is quick and easy and can be done from anywhere! Remain extra vigilant.
