Fraud Alerts



01.15.2010
We have been alerted of a scam that forces a pop-up login message to appear on legitimate banking websites.

The message tricks users into giving up passwords, account numbers and other sensitive information. Sometimes the message appears after one has logged into an online banking or other financial website. The message may also ask the user to participate in a survey to win prizes. Please know that Paducah Bank will never present you with a pop-up message asking for sensitive information.
