Protecting your Account and your Information Sample Clauses

Protecting your Account and your Information. You acknowledge that there’s a growing risk of losses resulting from fraud, including unauthorized items. To help prevent fraud on your account, you agree to take reasonable steps to ensure the integrity of your account and items drawn on your account or deposited to it. We recommend you take the following preventive measures (not an exhaustive list): • Reconcile your account statements when received and promptly notify us of any problem. • Promptly notify us if you don’t receive an expected statement. • Don’t provide your account and routing numbers to unknown persons.

Have different people reconcile statements and withdraw funds. • Watch for checks cashed out of sequence or made out to cash as flags for embezzlement. • Review activity for unexpected fluctuations such as the percentage of cash deposits to total deposit size.
