FDIC Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program
Our institution has elected to participate in the FDIC’s Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Under that program, through June 30, 2010, all non-interest bearing transaction accounts are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount in the account. Coverage under the Transaction Account Guarantee Program is in addition to and separate from the coverage available under the FDIC’s general deposit insurance rules.

FDIC deposit insurance temporarily increased from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor through December 31, 2013.

February 2010 - Your Internet Safety

The Bank is aware of various e-mail scams that purport to be from banks and may attempt to get you to install software, go to fake websites, or otherwise provide confidential information via other means to unauthorized parties.

Please note that e-mail is very easy to forge and there is nothing the Bank can do to prevent it from reaching you. Also, there is nothing your e-mail provider can do to prevent forged e-mail, and many other technologies such as anti-virus or anti-spam cannot detect or stop it.

When you receive an e-mail that appears to be sent from the Bank and it is requesting an action on your part, please call us to double check that the e-mail is not fake.

We will never ask you to:

• Install software provided by e-mail.
• Go to a website to enter your personal information, including account numbers, social security numbers, driver's license numbers, date of birth, etc.
• Call a non-local or 800 number to provide personal information as noted above.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns about the updates please feel free to contact Choice Bank directly at (920) 230-1300 or info@choicebank.com.
