CEO Message - October 2021
The past few months have not been easy on many of us, having to face lockdowns and restrictions once again because of COVID-19.
As life was going back to normal, many of us were suddenly required to remain in our homes to ensure the safety of our communities or be kept away from our loved ones. We are here to help our members during these tough times, and I urge you to give us a call or email us immediately, if you need assistance during this challenging time. My thanks go to our staff who have delivered continuous service to members, going above and beyond ensuring our commitment to members remains our greatest priority. Many of our staff have also taken up a fun and physical challenge during lockdown to support our charity partner Legacy raising money for Veterans and their families, through their ‘Lunge for Legacy’ initiative.
Cyber Awareness month
We are committed to providing our members with a safe banking experience. October is Cyber Awareness month and I am encouraging our members to visit our newly launched Security Hub on our website. The Hub contains information on how our members can protect themselves online, how Australian Military Bank protects you and the latest security and fraud information such as scam awareness.
A recent scam known as ‘flubot’ has been targeting many Australians via text message. The texts ask the recipient to click on the link provided to check their voice messages or delivery package status, some have even disguised themselves ‘DHL’. Please do not click on these links. For more information on this scam, please visit our Security Hub.
