Protect More Than Your Heart This Valentine’s Day

This Valentine’s season, we’re reminding our community to stay alert for scams, especially romance scams and online, phone, and text scams that are becoming more personal and convincing. Scammers often use emotional pressure, urgent requests, or dramatic stories to get people to act quickly. If something feels off, slow down, trust your instincts, and take a moment to verify before responding.

Staying informed is one of the strongest ways to protect yourself and your loved ones. Learn the warning signs, talk openly with friends and family, and reach out to us if you ever have a concern or question.

We’ve created a simple, printable one‑page reference that highlights the key things to know.
