From FDIC Consumer News: Protect yourself against imposters. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has received reports of fraudulent communications that have the appearance of being from this agency. Fraudsters know that people trust the FDIC name, so scammers use the FDIC’s name and logo, and even the names of actual employees, in perpetrating fraudulent schemes.
Effective March 17, 2020, The Co-operative Central Bank (CCB) and its Share Insurance Fund (SIF) merged into the Depositors Insurance Fund (DIF). As a result, bankHometown has become a member of the DIF.
Rest assured that your deposits with bankHometown will continue to be insured in full. Each depositor is insured to at least $250,000 by the FDIC. Effective March 17, all deposits above the FDIC limit are insured by the DIF.
The DIF has a long history of protecting deposits. Since 1934, when the DIF was created, no depositor has lost a penny in a member bank.
