With the release of the U.S. Federal Treasury Department Economic Impact Payment this week, it’s more critical than ever to be aware of financial scams targeting you.
First, some information on Economic Impact Payments. How you receive your payment will depend on how you chose to receive your federal tax refund for 2018 or 2019 (if you’ve filed already). If you chose to have your refund direct deposited, your stimulus payment will be deposited to that same account. If you’ve not chosen a direct deposit in the past, you will receive a paper check in the mail. In some cases, even with past direct deposit information, you may receive a mailed check instead of a deposit into your account.
To check your AGCU account to see if you’ve received your stimulus payment, you can view your account activity using online and mobile banking. Visit the IRS website for more information on the stimulus payment, including eligibility, payment amounts, what and when to expect it, and more.
Second, due to the release of stimulus payments, there has been a massive increase in scam activities. The IRS is urging taxpayers to be on the lookout for phone calls and email phishing attempts. These scams can lead to tax-related fraud and identity theft. Read more from the IRS about these scams.
Remember, if you receive emails or phone calls asking for personal data or account details, NEVER give out your information. You should also be very careful about how and where you use your personal information online. If you have a question about an account, reach out directly to that company. For more information contact AGCU Member Care at (866) 508-2428.

We are seeing an uptick in scam activity related to Coronavirus (COVID-19). Remembers, scammers demand a sense of urgency and panic to extort money from people every day. Here are a few scams we are hearing more about now:
- Fake checks, emails, and phone calls about the federal stimulus – with the passing of federal assistance last week, it is too soon for government checks to be issued. The U.S. Treasury Department is working out how they will be distributing funds, and more information will be coming available soon.
- Fraudsters may claim they are unable to return from a foreign country and ask for money to be sent to them via wires or other electronic sources or they will be sent to prison.
- An incarceration list or counterfeit list from a Federal agency like the FBI or IRS, where your name or family member’s name has been placed on the list and by paying a fee will get your name off the list.
- Money making, “ground-floor” marketing schemes to sell a “virus cure” are completely false. If they are asking for money, just tell them no.
- Finally, be aware of fraudulent account alerts from companies. AGCU and other companies will not be sending emails asking for your account information. Usually, these email scams contain a link they want you to click on and fill out a form or a false login screen.
Be very careful to NEVER give out your information on phone calls, emails, or online groups! If you have a question about an account, reach out directly to that company.
