EAGAN, Minn. — The Minnesota Credit Union Network hosted a fraud workshop that educated representatives from 12 credit unions on mass marketing scams in Minnesota and how credit unions work on fraud prevention.
The workshop featured two special agents from the Minnesota Department of Public Safety's fraud enforcement unit. The agents taught attendees how to identify a mass marketing scam, the negative impact the scams have on financial institutions and how to report a fraud. The agents emphasized the importance of the role that credit unions play in educating members and reporting any fraudulent marking pieces members bring to their attention.
Credit union employees also shared stories of members who were targets of lottery and sweepstakes scams.
