Outside of business hours, we provide a dedicated 24/7 hotline for card reporting.

Earthmover Credit Union employs advanced systems to safeguard your debit card from fraud. Our fraud detection services continuously monitor your transactions for unusual patterns that might indicate unauthorized activity. If a suspicious transaction is detected, you may receive an alert via text, email, or phone call to verify the purchase. This proactive approach helps us catch potential fraud early.
We also utilize chip technology (EMV) on all Earthmover debit cards, which encrypts your transaction data at the point of sale, making it significantly harder for fraudsters to copy your card information. This layered security approach works to protect your account from various types of fraud, giving you greater confidence when using your card for purchases.
While Earthmover Credit Union provides significant fraud protection, your vigilance plays a key role in keeping your debit card secure. Always remember to shield your PIN when entering it at an ATM or point-of-sale terminal. Never write your PIN down or share it with anyone, including family members or bank employees.
Regularly review your account statements and transaction history through Earthmover Credit Union's online banking or mobile app. Report any unfamiliar transactions immediately, no matter how small. Be cautious of phishing attempts – unsolicited emails or calls asking for your card details or PIN. Earthmover Credit Union will never ask for your full card number or PIN via email or text message. When shopping online, only use trusted websites with secure connections (look for 'https://' in the URL and a padlock icon). These simple habits significantly reduce your risk of debit card fraud.
