These days fraud is everywhere, and fraudster methods are always evolving. A growing number of methods are targeting your checkbook. Did you know that checks are now one of the least secure forms of payment? Criminals are combining old-school methods of theft with readily available technology to steal checks, impersonate account holders, and sell to the black market. Arm yourself with the knowledge to protect your identity and checking account. How is check fraud committed? Lifting ink: Lifting ink from a check, or “check washing”, can be done using chemicals as readily available as nail polish remover. Criminals can remove your intended payee’s information and replace it with theirs while also increasing the dollar amount. They then deposit the fraudulent check into their account. Targeting mailboxes: Once mail is stolen from a residential mailbox or a USPS blue box, criminals sift in search of checks that can be washed and forged. The frequency of mail theft is directly correlated to the spike in check fraud. Selling check images on the dark web: There is a growing network of darknets and encrypted communication platforms that criminals use to sell check images. Criminals can use the personal information from your check and your banking information to commit identity theft scams.   Consider these check-writing alternatives and services. If you can, try to avoid placing checks in the mail. First Bank offers a number of alternative options for mailing checks like BillPay, Zelle, External Transfer services, and more.

If interest rates are steadily dropping, homeowners can refinance to save money and improve their financial standing.   Benefits of Home Loan Refinancing Refinancing is a readjustment of your mortgage loan to benefit your finances in the following ways: Lower monthly payments Build home equity faster Improve credit Change to adjustable or fixed-rate plans When homeowners choose to refinance, they can generally expect to pay off their loan faster. 30-year mortgages can be refinanced to 12 or 10-year loans. Although it may sometimes increase the anticipated monthly payment, you can cash in on equity or sell for an increased value. When Is a Good Time to Refinance?

Finance 101: Banking Basics Finance 101: Investing in your financial future is one of the smartest things you can do. But there is more to building healthy finances than simply stashing away extra cash in your piggy bank. In this article, we cover a wide range of topics to help you learn the basics of finance and help you make educated decisions regarding your financial future. Checking Accounts For those new to finance, opening a checking account is a great first step. A checking account enables you to deposit money into an account that can be accessed by writing a check, using your debit card, or withdrawing money from your bank’s automated teller machine (ATM). The biggest advantage to having a checking account is that it keeps your money safe while allowing you to access it when needed. Unlike cash, if your debit card becomes lost or stolen your bank can put a stop on your account, prohibiting unauthorized users to access your money. Tips for using a checking account: Keep a running balance of your account to avoid overdrawing your account. Most banks charge an overdraft fee for purchases that are made with insufficient funds. Consider overdraft protection if your bank offers it to you. Familiarize yourself with your account’s minimum balance requirements. Savings Accounts A savings account is less accessible than a checking account, as the Federal Reserve limits the number of free transfers or withdrawals you can make from a savings account. According to Investopedia, “A regular savings account is easy to set up and maintain. You can usually link this type of savings account directly to your checking account at the same bank and quickly and easily move money between the two accounts. Having these two accounts linked can sometimes help you avoid overdraft charges and/or under-the-minimum-balance fees from your checking account.” Having a savings account can help you set aside money for emergencies and help you save for large purchases, all while earning interest. Credit Building and maintaining good credit will provide several advantages to you, including: Lower financing rates More negotiating power Attractive mortgage and refinancing rates Higher credit card limits and rewards While getting a credit card is a great first step to building your credit, maxing out your credit card, failing to pay your credit card bill 4 min read
