While appearing legitimate, these are actually malicious attempts by criminals to collect your information for the purpose of committing fraud.

Do not respond to unsolicited emails or websites that request personal information.

What to look for

* An unexpected website, webpage or email appearing to be from a legitimate company (such as CMB) may try to entice you to provide your personal information by claiming to verify security information or account details, possibly to avoid interruption of a service.
* You may be asked to complete an online form or to respond to an email requesting personal information for no apparent reason.
* The information being requested is of a personal or financial nature, such as credit card numbers, account numbers, passwords, Personal Identification Numbers (PINs), date of birth, social insurance numbers, etc.

Protect yourself

* Do not respond to unexpected websites or unsolicited emails that request personal information. If in doubt, contact the trusted company directly.
* Report any suspicious requests to Caribbean Mercantile Bank N.V. immediately.
* Please follow safe computing practices such as protecting your privacy, using anti-virus software and protecting your internet connection with a firewall, and using supported browsers to help protect your information.
