Scammers are always creating new ways to steal your money. One of the recent scams utilizing peer-to-peer payment services is what’s known as the “Pay Yourself Scam.” The gist of the scam is that someone pretending to be a representative from Stratton Credit tells you that there has been a fraudulent transaction and in order to stop it, you need to send yourself money with Zelle®.
While Stratton Credit may send you a text alert to prevent unusual activity, we will never contact you to request that you send money using Zelle® to anyone, including yourself, or to share a code to resolve fraud. If you receive a request like this, it is likely a scammer trying to trick you.
Please watch this educational video from Zelle® to learn about the trending scam. If you detect suspicious activity regarding Zelle®, hang up and contact Customer Care.
Sensitive information may include full or partial Social Security number, card PIN number, one-time passcodes, online banking user ID, online banking password, or online banking security questions.
Scammers use this information to reset credentials and take over online banking accounts. If you receive an email or text message confirming a change on your account that you did not make, please contact our Customer Care immediately.
