If you receive an email that purports to be from CO-OP Network asking for cardholder information, please note that the email is fraudulent as CO-OP Network never contacts credit union members directly and never requests personal account information. The email should be considered a deceitful attempt to obtain cardholder information with the intent of committing fraudulent activity against your accounts.
