You can also explore resources from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stay on top of the latest scams and financial protections. And for Charlie users, FraudShield provides real-time alerts and educational tools to help spot scams before they escalate.
Use chip cards (the ones with the small silver or gold square) when possible, and pay inside when you can. Charlie customers get added protection with FraudShield and SpeedBump, which activate during high-risk moments, such as large transfers or unfamiliar device logins.
FraudShield comes with Fraud Alerts Co-Pilot, which allows you to add a trusted family member as a second set of eyes to receive important alerts (e.g. change of address, or a payee being added to bill pay), so you’re never alone in the fight against fraud. Learn more at charlie.com.
