Sierra Bancorp warns customers that financial scammers are employing a range of communication channels—including phone calls, text messages, emails, and physical mail—to attempt theft of money and personal data.
The company urges account holders to stay alert and take proactive steps to protect sensitive information as fraudulent schemes become increasingly sophisticated and diverse. According to Sierra Bancorp, vigilance remains critical in combating phishing and smishing attacks targeting banking clients across the U.S. banking sector.
Earlier this year, Sierra Bancorp cautioned customers about scammers impersonating relatives and making urgent requests for money, advising account holders to verify such communications before taking action in a separate alert. The bank has also recently provided funding to the Fresno Rescue Mission in support of counseling, recovery, education, and workforce training programs through its Sierra Grant initiative. Both efforts reflect Sierra Bancorp’s ongoing engagement with community security and support.
