SCAM WARNING - Fraudsters are calling clients, spoofing the Bank's phone number and posing as MB&T employees. These fraudsters ask for Online Banking passwords and one-time PINs. We will never ask for this information. Please hang up & call your branch, Relationship Manager, or our Service Center (805-963-7511) immediately.
