UW Credit Union Prevents $1 Million in Losses

We’ve hit a milestone in keeping our members safe

An icon of a shield with a checkmark in the middle.

In less than a year, we’ve prevented our members from losing more than $1 million to scams. 

There’s a range of scams out there – from small Facebook scams to large cryptocurrency investment scams – and they’re constantly evolving. 

Our approach to fighting them is two-fold.  

First, we provide members with resources on what to watch for.  

Second, using knowledge, experience, technology and keen awareness, our staff watches for red flags in our members’ transactions and takes action to protect your hard-earned money. 

“Here For Every You” means serving as a resource when things don’t seem right and helping you stay safe.
