Together with the ABA, we're raising awareness about the best practices for defending against phishing attacks.

We're also excited to promote #PracticeSafeChecks, a new ABA campaign aimed at educating customers on the safe and secure use of checks, while also promoting modern alternatives to traditional check payments.
