Staying Alert & Connected

Take financial control with immediate fraud alerts. You can check your phone for free, real-time texts that tell you when a transaction is suspicious. We’ll ask if the purchase was legitimate and you can simply reply with a yes or no answer.

It’s already set up and provided without a cost to all America First Visa® cardholders. Just look for the sender AFCU FRAUD or the short code 28799 to verify the message—it’s a safe & secure way to monitor your account.

And if you don’t want to receive alerts, just send STOP or CANCEL and we’ll take care of the rest.

These texts are easy, effective and a service we’re glad to provide, because protecting your hard-earned money is our first priority.
