#BanksNeverAskThat

Fight phishing scams year-round with this free, ready-made campaign from ABA. 

Every day, thousands of people fall victim to fraudulent calls, emails and texts from scammers pretending to be from their bank. We want to change that.

Since its initial launch in 2020, ABA has called on all banks across the country to register to participate in the #BanksNeverAskThat anti-phishing campaign—a bold plug-and-play campaign created to educate consumers about phishing scams and how to thwart them. Since its initial launch in 2020, nearly 2,500 banks from across the country have joined forces to make this campaign a huge success.

Even if you’ve registered in the past, you have to register again to receive instant access to a toolkit full of ready-to-use assets including videos, GIFs, social posts, media resources, printables, Scam City the game and more. 

Registration is entirely FREE—to members and nonmembers alike—and can be co-branded, bank-branded or ABA-branded. Once registered, you’ll get access to the full kit of materials. The materials in the toolkit are evergreen and can be used any time of the year.
