What to look for

website, webpage or email appearing to be from a legitimate
company (such as The Windward Islands Bank Ltd.) may try to entice
you to provide your personal information by claiming to verify
security information or account details, possibly to avoid
interruption of a service.
- You
may be asked to complete an online form or to respond to an
email requesting personal information for no apparent reason.
- The information
being requested is of a personal or financial nature, such
as credit card numbers, account numbers, passwords, Personal
Identification Numbers (PINs), date of birth, social insurance
numbers, etc.

personal information. If in doubt, contact the trusted company
