Automated Fraud Alert (EnFact) Phone Calls, Texts, and Emails.
You are already enrolled in the automated phone call and email alerts as long as we have your correct phone number and email address on file. To sign up for text alerts, see below. If suspicious activity occurs when using your debit card, you will have the option to state whether this activity is fraudulent or not. If you respond it is fraud, it may block your card. If you respond it is not fraud, you can continue to use your card.
