As social media fraud and scams continue to evolve and get more challenging to spot, ask that you to be vigilant and “think before you click.”

• If you see any pages or messages on Facebook or Instagram claiming to represent OAS FCU, do not engage with them or share your personal information.

• Always pause and ask: “Is this really from whom it claims to be? Why are they asking for my information now? Could I verify this another way?”

• Keep your login credentials safe, check for impersonation attempts, and be especially cautious with any unsolicited direct messages on social media.

• Contact OAS FCU directly at 202-458-3834 if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank you for your understanding and continued loyalty and trust.
