First Chatham Bank’s web page should never be accessed from a link provided by a third party. It should only be accessed by typing the Web site name or address in the Web browser or by using a “book mark” that directs the Web browser to First Chatham’s website. A financial institution should not, and First Chatham Bank will not, send email messages to you that request confidential information such as account numbers, passwords, PIN numbers, social security numbers, date of birth, etc. Never respond to any such request, no matter how authentic it looks, and report such an incident to the bank.
