The Federal Reserve warned that text messages and emails claiming suspicious activity on a bank account may be scams rather than genuine alerts. Fraudsters impersonate the central bank to harvest personal financial information, the Fed said in a social media post, directing consumers to its online resources for protection guidance. The alert matters because the Federal Reserve does not typically hold consumer deposit accounts, so recipients should verify any purported alert against their own bank before sharing data.
