Identity Theft

Keep your good credit rating and your good name!

A recent study estimates that more than ten million Americans will be victimized by Identity Theft this year! Don't let it happen to you.

In response to an exceptional number of reported incidents of identity theft and fraudulent crimes, Coastal Federal Credit Union is taking assertive measures to combat and prevent seasonally motivated criminal activities. We have far exceeded all regulatory mandates to insure the safety of our member shares.

If your identity is stolen, we're here to help you get your life back. We are available around the clock to help our members prevent and avoid serious consequences.

  1. Our Identity Theft Specialists are equipped to help you every step of the way if identity theft happens to you.
  2. Call 1-800-868-4262 immediately to speak to an Identity Theft Specialist who will help you take care of things even when you don't know where to start.
  3. Email your questions about identity theft to: idhelp@coastalfcu.org or to sign up for our next Identity Theft seminar.

What if I've already been victimized? First be sure that you've notified all of your financial
partners
» (Use the handy link to get the standard IDTheft affidavit). Here at Coastal, that would mean our Risk Management Department, call Wayne Willams at 919 420 8282 (800 868 4262 ext 8282).

Remember, forewarned is forearmed! An ounce of prevention will definitely go a long way. If you are victimized...keep copies of all of your correspondence.
