On their website, the Federal Trade Commission recommends immediately reporting the loss or theft of credit cards, debit cards, and ATM cards. This will help you limit your liability for potential charges you did not authorize. As noted on the FTC website, once you report the loss of your card, "you cannot be held liable for unauthorized transfers that occur after that time." For more information on the federal rules regarding fraudulent charges, visit the "Money & Credit" part of the Consumer Information section on the FTC website.
What documentation will I need to provide?
Our team will notify you if any additional documentation is required to verify your card information. However, as noted on the "Money & Credit" section of the FTC website, there are additional steps you can take for your own record-keeping. These include writing a follow-up letter to Amplify Credit Union and sending it by certified mail, providing you with proof that your notice has been received. If so inclined, you can mail notices to the following address:
