Learn how Fidelity can protect your accounts.

Publish Date: October 2025

In today’s digital world, scams are getting smarter. With artificial intelligence and deepfakes, fraudsters can mimic familiar voices, create fake videos, and send messages that look all too real.

“That’s why it’s more important than ever to bank with people you know and trust,” said Lucas Meier, Assistant Vice President of Information Security at Fidelity Bank & Trust.  “We are real people who understand your community, your habits, and your needs,” he added.

As Your Hometown Bank, we pair modern security tools with top-notch service. Our team knows our customers — and that personal connection helps us keep your accounts protected by spotting suspicious activity faster.

This Cybersecurity Month, learn more about how Your Hometown Bank is a good defense:

1. ESTABLISHED VERIFICATION STEPS
