What Members Can Do To Help
Maine Harvest FCU is committed to protecting the privacy of its members. Members can help by following

your account number, you should beware. Official credit union staff will have access to your
information and will not need to ask for it.

reach you. If we detect potentially fraudulent or unauthorized activity or use of an account, we will
attempt to contact you immediately. If your address or phone number changes, please let us
know.
