Blue Federal Credit Union is pleased to offer additional Falcon Fraud Protection services for your debit card.
Our goal is to help identify and prevent identity theft. If any transactions are unusual or outside of your normal spending patterns, you may receive communication from Falcon Fraud to confirm these transactions. If you have a Blue debit card with a cell phone number on file, Falcon Fraud will send you Fraud Alerts via text messages.
* If you do not have a cell phone number on file, Falcon Fraud will contact you at the email address or home phone number we have on file.
