Peoples Bank is aware that some customers and non-customers were contacted by an unknown source and instructed to reactivate their Peoples Bank debit card over the phone by supplying their account number and pin.  This is a phishing scam, an attempt to collect your personal financial information in order to commit identity theft or fraud. 

We’d like to remind you that you come first at Peoples Bank and that protecting your personal information is a #1 priority.  We would never ask you for your personal information over the phone—we already have it!  If at any time you feel you may have fallen victim to a scam, please notify your local Banking Center as soon as possible.
