Scam targets HawaiiUSA Federal Credit Union members

Advertiser Staff

Members of HawaiiUSA Federal Credit Union are the target of a so-called phishing e-mail sent out earlier today.

The bogus e-mail, which purports to be from the Honolulu-based credit union, tries to get people to click on a link, promising their account will be credited by $100 for answering five questions.

HawaiiUSA said it was aware of the e-mail and is taking steps to mitigate any problems it might cause.
