If you believe that you or your business has fallen victim to a cyber attack, we encourage you to contact your financial institution immediately. Fraud actors move quickly and the sooner you report the fraudulent activity to your financial institution, the more likely they are to recover any lost funds. They will also work to secure your accounts from further damage. If you are an ATB client and would like to report a phishing attack, we encourage you to email fraud@atb.com.
