Security Tip #1: Strong Passwords = Stronger Protection!
Your password is your first line of defense against fraud. Make it count!
✅ Use long passwords or passphrases with unrelated words.
✅ Create a unique password for every account.
✅ Let an encrypted password manager remember them for you.
A stronger password today can help prevent a headache tomorrow!
Security Tip #2: Double Up on Security!
A strong password is great. An extra layer of protection is even better!
Turn on two-factor authentication (2FA) whenever possible to help keep criminals out of your accounts.
Bonus Tip: Look for passkeys! They offer a secure, convenient way to sign in using your fingerprint, face scan or device PIN.
Security Tip #3: Don't Ignore Those Updates!
That software update notification? It's more important than you think!
Updates don't just add new features. They also fix security weaknesses that scammers could exploit.
✅ Keep your phone updated.
✅ Update your browser and banking apps.
✅ Turn on automatic updates whenever possible.
Stay updated. Stay protected.
Security Tip #4: Keep an Eye on Your Accounts!
The sooner you spot suspicious activity, the sooner you can take action.
💳 Review your transactions regularly.
🔔 Set up account alerts to help catch unusual activity.
🚩 Receive a login verification code you didn't request? Change your password and check your account.
Remember: AHCU will NEVER call, text or email asking for your password or a one-time verification code.
Stay alert. Stay informed. Stay secure!
Security Tip #5: Don't Let Scammers Rush You!
"Act now!" "Your account is locked!" "Immediate action required!"
Sound familiar? Scammers use urgency to pressure you into making quick decisions.
🛑 STOP before clicking suspicious links.
🤔 THINK before sharing personal information.
📞 VERIFY by contacting AHCU directly through a trusted phone number or website.
Remember: If someone is rushing you, that's your cue to slow down.
Take your time. Protect your money.
