Banks work hard to prevent their customers from becoming victims of any kind of financial fraud. As a banking consumer, there are things you can do and simple precautions you can take to protect yourself and your money. The Safeguarding Your Money section offers tips on credit card fraud, debit card fraud, identity theft, phishing, vishing, real estate fraud and about how you can protect your personal information.
Banks take great efforts to protect their customers from fraud. There are also many simple but important steps that consumers can take to safeguard themselves.
The Canadian Bankers Association and many banks are members of the Fraud Prevention Forum, a concerned group of private sector firms, consumer and volunteer groups, government agencies and law enforcement organizations that are committed to fighting fraud aimed at consumers and businesses. Through its partners, the forum, which is chaired by the Competition Bureau, works to prevent Canadians from becoming victims of fraud by educating them on how to recognize it, report it and stop it.
