Woodforest Debit Card Fraud Alerts

Woodforest Debit Card Fraud Alerts are designed to notify you when unusual activity is detected on your Woodforest Debit Card. Woodforest Debit Card Fraud Alerts may include an SMS text message to your mobile device, or an email to the primary address we have on file. We will ask you to respond to the alert letting us know if you authorized the transaction in question.

How Woodforest Debit Card Fraud Alerts Work

Your debit card is continuously monitored for transactions that occur outside of your normal transaction activity. This may include:

Purchases made at unfamiliar locations

Excessive transactions in a short period of time

Transactions made during unusual timeframes

Purchase patterns that are consistent with previously identified fraud trends

If your debit card is identified as having potentially fraudulent activity we may block your card and a Woodforest Debit Card Fraud Alert may be sent to you to verify the suspicious transaction. If no response is received or we are unable to send a notification via email or SMS, an agent may attempt to contact you by phone in order to verify the transaction. Your debit card may remain blocked until you verify the transaction.
