The staff of Bridgewater Savings Bank is dedicated to advanced security and customer protection. We would like to address a growing national concern that may affect you.

The FBI has asked banks to alert their customers to fraudulent activities taking place throughout the country. These activities involve receiving cashier’s or personal checks through Internet transactions or contact with individuals often from foreign countries regarding winning, receiving or sending money in relation to a lottery prize or to use their account to receive a deposit.

Hundreds of millions of financial transactions – both online and offline – occur each day. Internet banking and other online financial transactions are often safer than paper-based transactions. However, Bridgewater Savings Bank would like to help you safeguard yourself against any and all forms of fraudulent activity.

Using a variety of safeguards, Bridgewater Savings Bank protects the reliability and security of all our financial transactions. However, the FBI has brought to our attention, new fraudulent methods that are being utilized. To ensure that you do not become a victim of such fraud, please click here to read an FBI advisory notice. And, please remember to check your statements every month for any unusual activity and report it to the bank immediately.

As always, we will do everything in our power to help protect you and your accounts from fraudulent activity. We only ask that you, too, be watchful for such activity. Together, we can ensure that your accounts remain safe and secure.
