Don’t Fall for Bank Impersonation Scams

Fraudsters know that the majority of people will act quickly if they receive a text, call, or email claiming there’s an issue with their bank account.
A bank impersonation scam is when someone reaches out pretending to work at a credit union or bank you use. Most of these scams are executed to either steal your credit or debit card information, steal your online banking credentials, get you to hand over money, or to get around your credit union or bank’s security protections to access your accounts directly.

Just like you, we take pride in what we do. We just happen to be a credit union.

In 2017, Aventa expanded its field of membership to now serve the counties of Alamosa, Chaffee, Custer, El Paso, Fremont, Huerfano, Pueblo, Saguache and Teller. Anyone who lives, works, worships or goes to school in these counties may join. We're happy to serve our community of government employees, educators, city retirees, business owners and agricultural workers.

Experience the credit union difference

Credit Unions are member-owned, not-for-profit financial cooperatives. As such, members pool their savings and make loans to each other at interest rates that are often lower than the rates at other financial institutions. Credit unions are dedicated to improving the lives of their members.
