There has been an increase in impersonation scams where victims receive unsolicited phone calls, text messages, or e-mails purporting to be from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or the FDIC Office of Inspector General (OIG). FDIC OIG special agents will never ask you to provide money or other personally identifiable information over the phone. If you are contacted and you suspect fraud, please contact the OIG Hotline. For additional information go to our Impersonation Scams Alert.
