(Estherville)--The Estherville Police Department was alerted Tuesday that a neighboring law enforcement agency received a report from a concerned person, in regards to a phone call they received from an alleged employee that worked at Bank Plus. 

The phone number came up as the Bank Plus location in Estherville and the male subject advised the reporting party, that their bank account had been compromised.  At this point, the male subject asked the citizen for all passwords associated with their account.  No passwords were given out in this situation.

Police remind residents to never give out any personal information to anyone over the phone. 

In a Facebook post, Bank Plus says fraudsters are impersonating Bank Plus by spoofing its phone number and directing customers to a fake website that looks like the Bank Plus website.

Bank officials say they will never ask for sensitive information like your card number, account number, or online banking information. Do not trust unexpected calls, texts, or links, and do not visit unfamiliar websites. If something seems suspicious, hang up immediately.

Customers enrolled in Online Banking alerts or who use a debit card may still receive legitimate fraud notifications.

If you have any concerns contact Bank Plus at 712-362-5000.
