An email will be sent to the email address we have for you on file.

After an email is delivered, a text message will be sent from “37268.” The text message will include details regarding the suspicious transaction and will ask you to verify or deny the transaction. Below is an example of a FraudDetect text message:

 

If there is no response to the text, you will receive a phone call from FraudDetect and they will inform you that they are calling on behalf of Florence Bank. They will ask you to verify your identity and to verify a recent transaction on your card (for example, "Did you recently make a purchase in the amount of $14.92 at ABC gas station?")

If you miss their call, FraudDetect will leave a voicemail that will include a case number and a phone number to call back. Be sure to have your case number ready when contacting FraudDetect. If you have any questions, please contact us at 413.586.1300 during business hours.

FraudDetect predicts the probability of fraud by comparing transactions to current fraud trends and will notify the customer if something seems suspicious. Potentially fraudulent activity includes a sudden change in location, a sudden string of expensive purchases, or any new transaction patterns associated with fraud trends around the world.

Please remember to notify us before you travel so that we can help you plan for any hiccups that might occur along the way. Also, be aware that there are certain locations within the U.S. where your debit card might be blocked. This is why it is essential to always have a backup form of payment.

In the event that fraud has taken place on your account, please contact us during business hours at 413.586.1300 or stop by your local branch to receive a new debit card and review debit card transactions. A dispute will be filed on your behalf if fraudulent transactions cleared your account.
