Fraud Alert: Be Cautious of Impersonation Scams

Scammers may contact customers by phone or text claiming to be from Bank First's ACH Department and asking you to verify ACH files or click a link.

Please remember:

  • Bank First will not call or text you to ask for online banking credentials, one-time passcodes, or to verify ACH transactions.
  • Do not click links or respond to unexpected calls or text messages claiming to be from Bank First.
  • Phone numbers and caller ID can be spoofed to look legitimate.

If you receive a suspicious call or message:

  • Do not engage or provide any information.
  • Hang up immediately.
  • Contact your local Bank First office using a trusted phone number.
