How Fraud Alerts Work

Our system learns your spending habits. If a transaction looks unusual, we’ll notify you via text*, email, or phone so you can:

  • Confirm it’s legitimate – keep using your card uninterrupted
  • Report it as fraud – we immediately block your card to prevent more charges
  • Quick, easy, and free—all part of your cardholder benefits. Just make sure your contact info is up to date in eBranch or the CSE mobile app.
  • Check Your Accounts

Update Contact Information

    If you’re contacted about potential fraud, always review your account for suspicious transactions. If you spot any fraudulent activity, contact us immediately to dispute the charges.

    Text Alert Samples

    To help you understand what to expect, take a look at some sample text alerts. These are similar to what you would receive in the event you get a text or email to verify activity on your debit or credit card. As always, if you are uncomfortable with a message you receive, it's always a good idea to contact us (or any sender) to verify that the message is legitimate.
