Centennial Bank has been made aware of a new email scam that is making the rounds. This one claims that customer’s homes are facing judicial foreclosure – and it looks like it was sent directly from Centennial Bank.
At first glance, the message appears legitimate. It uses familiar branding, official-sounding language, and even references foreclosure laws and court proceedings. But make no mistake: this is a scam designed to scare customers into acting quickly.
How the Scam Works:
The email typically claims:
- You have an outstanding balance on your mortgage property.
- A judicial foreclosure has been initiated or is imminent.
- Immediate action is required to resolve this issue.
The email may look like it comes from Centennial Bank, complete with logos, and even a sender name that appears to be from the bank. However, the email address and phone number are not legitimate.
