How to Identify and Prevent Fraud

At Newrez, your security is our top priority. As scammer's tactics become more sophisticated, we encourage you to stay alert and safeguard your finances.

Be Cautious of Account Fraud

Check your account regularly and report any unusual activity immediately. Additionally, maintain strong security by updating your password to a new strong password every three months.

Verify Before You Trust

Fraudsters may pretend to represent companies you know. If someone claims to be a representative of a company you do business with, always verify the contact with the company directly. Don't let anyone pressure you—take time to confirm the information yourself. 

Protect Your Information

We will never ask for your password or sensitive information via phone, email, or text. If someone requests this information, be alert and report it. 

Secure Your Device

Scammers often target phones or other personal devices to make unauthorized payments. Protect your accounts and personal devices using multi-factor authentication or other means of ensuring the security of your account. 

Safeguard Your Information

Even seemingly harmless details like your first car or mother's maiden name can help scammers bypass security. Avoid sharing personal information on social media or online.

Be Mindful of Mail

Stay alert for any unexpected or suspicious mail that arrives in your inbox. If something seems off, contact the company directly associated with the mail to confirm its authenticity before taking any action.
