Fraud Alert: Caller ID Spoofing

Scammers are disguising their numbers to appear as Martha's Vineyard Bank on your caller ID. These calls aren't from us and are intended to steal your personal information.

Scammers use technology to fake trusted phone numbers, making their calls appear legitimate.

Protect yourself:

  • We never ask for passwords, full debit card numbers, or PINs over the phone
  • If something doesn't seem right, hang up and call us directly at 508-627-4266
  • Never share sensitive information with unsolicited callers

Your safety is our priority. For more information on fraud protection, please visit our Fraud Prevention Page or contact the Solutions Desk.
