Spear phishing attempts are targeting Radiant Credit Union members via text messages detailing a fraudulent charge to a Visa card or other account. The recipient is being prompted to click on a non-Radiant URL to cancel the charge. This non-Radiant URL is taking the member to a spoofed (imitation) eBanking login page to enter their eBanking login credentials.
    • Please be aware of the URL and link you are visiting or selecting. Do not click/select non-Radiant URLs.
    • If you are unsure if a charge is fraudulent, please contact Radiant Credit Union directly.

If you have already received this targeted text message and have clicked on the links, please contact Radiant Credit Union at (352) 381-5200 or stop by one of our branch locations, and we will promptly put you in touch with our Fraud Specialist to help resolve your situation.
