State Bank Will Never

Scammers impersonate State Bank of Southern Utah (SBSU) by spoofing our phone number to call and text people in Southern Utah. While they appear helpful, State Bank employees will never ask for:

  • Your ATM PIN, full social security, or credit card numbers.
  • Your card expiration dates or CVV codes.
  • Your Online Banking credentials (username, password, codes, or challenge answers).
  • Zelle codes (to send money with Zelle, a phone number or email address is all that you need. The one-time Zelle code sent to you at registration is used to associate your bank account. Never give it to anyone).
