Safeguard Your Card
Using your MasterMoney™ or ATM Card is one
of the safest ways to get cash or make purchases. Just follow
these simple safety rules. Make them a habit and teach new cardholders
in your family the same procedures.
Approach With Caution
-
Never insert your card or enter your personal identification
number
(PIN) in any terminal that does not look genuine, has been modified,
has a suspicious device attached, or is operating in a suspicious
manner.
-
At a drive-up facility, keep your doors locked and
all passenger
windows closed.
-
Remove your cash, receipt and card after every transaction.
If you
make a withdrawal, pocket cash immediately.
Be Efficient
-
Have your card ready when you approach
an ATM. Seal checks or
cash in an envelope. It is also a good idea to endorse checks
with the restriction “For Deposit Only.”
-
Block others’ view. Always stand
between the terminal and any
person who is waiting, or cup your hand over the keypad
as you enter your PIN.
Take Care Of Your Card
-
Treat your card as if it were cash or a credit card.
Protect it by not
exposing the magnetic stripe to other magnetic objects, which can
deactivate your card.
-
Record and file the name of your card’s
issuer and the necessary
phone numbers for reporting its loss or theft. File the
information safely.
Prevent Fraud
You can help prevent fraudulent activity on
your account by remembering these guidelines:
-
Memorize your PIN. Don’t tell anyone
your PIN or
account number and never loan anyone your card.
Never write your PIN on your card or anything you
carry with or near your card.
-
Report lost or stolen cards immediately. You can
greatly reduce fraudulent transactions by reporting it
quickly.
-
Never give your PIN over the phone. Be especially
cautious about information you discuss when using
cellular phones.
-
Know who you are talking to. Never give unsolicited
callers personal information or account numbers over
the phone.
-
Don’t fall prey to “Phishing.” Never
respond to an
email requesting you to provide your card, PIN,
account number, or any other sensitive personal
information via the Internet.
ONLINE PAYMENT PROTECTION
 MasterCard® SecureCode™ is a free service that helps protect your MasterMoney™ card against unauthorized Internet transactions by using identity information established between you and your bank. Perry State Bank, in conjunction with SHAZAM, are providing this service to you to improve the security of your payment transactions in the electronic commerce environment. Once you activate your SecureCode, your card cannot be used at participating Internet merchants without authentication by you and/or an authorized user of your account.
The purpose of SecureCode is to improve the security of your online payment transactions. It is designed to improve your confidence and that of the merchant when making Internet purchases, as well as reduce disputes and fraudulent activity related to the use of your MasterCard-branded payment cards.
SecureCode is easy to use. After enrolling, every time you pay online at a participating MasterCard SecureCode merchant with your MasterMoney Card, you will be automatically prompted to enter you own private SecureCode – just like entering a PIN at the ATM. With MasterCard SecureCode, only you and the people you designate can make online purchased using your MasterMoney™ Card at participating online merchants.
Choosing your own private Secure Code is quick and easy! You can enroll at anytime by clicking the enrollment link below, or at participating merchants, you will be prompted to enroll prior to checkout. When this happens, a window from SHAZAM will appear and you will be guided through the simple enrollment process before your purchase is completed. Once you have created your personal SecureCode, you must then use it for future purchases at participating online merchants.
