DEFIANCE POLICE WARN OF DEBIT CARD SCAM

Defi­ance Police warn of a debit card scam. They have heard from Mid­west Com­mu­nity Fed­eral Credit Union of sev­eral cus­tomers who reported receiv­ing calls stat­ing their debit cards had been can­celed.

The peo­ple were then asked to pro­vide the callers with their debit card num­ber.

Police say it’s a scam and that you should never pro­vide any­one with any per­sonal iden­ti­fy­ing infor­ma­tion unless you ini­ti­ated the call and you are absolutely cer­tain who you are talk­ing too. Any­one who might have received such a call should con­tact their local finan­cial insti­tu­tion and local police.
