Question: What is CityNET Business Online Banking?
Answer: CityNET Business Online Banking is an internet-based system that allows you to have constant access to your account. You can view account activity and account statements.

Question: What is Bill Pay?
Answer: Bill Pay is the feature that allows you to schedule payments to be sent automatically from your account. This feature will save you time and money.

For Your Protection, Be Aware of Potential Scams and Fraud

City National Bank is committed to protecting its customers. Click here to review our rules for customer contact, and note the customer information that our representatives will never ask for.

Do not respond to any phone calls, text messages, e-mails, or direct mails that you suspect is not from City National Bank. Report all suspicious contact immediately. To make a report:

• Visit your nearest City National Bank branch
• Call customer service at 1-866-385-3444
• Send an e-mail to Report@cnbok.com

Suspicious Texts
Be aware of text messaging scams that may be circulating within your community.

This photo provides an example of a suspicious text message in which the customer is alerted that their card has been deactivated, and they need to call a specified telephone number. At this time, City National Bank would not inform you that your card has been deactivated through a text message.

If you receive this text message or a similar message, do not respond. To verify or report any suspicious text messages, contact us with the contact information provided above immediately.

Suspicious Emails
Be aware of e-mail scams that may also be circulating within your community. The example provided below is an illustration of what a potential fraudulent e-mail might look like.

If you receive any suspicious e-mails, please do not open or reply to them and do not click any links. To verify or report any suspicious e-mails, contact us with the contact information provided above immediately

Phishing
Phishing is an electronic scam that attempts to gain access to personal and financial information, such as usernames and passwords, social security numbers, and credit card numbers, by masquerading as a trustworthy sender through electronic communication for the purpose of financial gain.

It is important to not open suspicious emails, click on unverified links, or reply to emails, text messages, or other forms of electronic communication. If you believe you’ve received a suspicious form of communication or have interacted with a suspicious form of communication, please contact City National Bank with the contact information provided above immediately.

How to spot a phishing e-mail or text:

• Request for personal information.
City National Bank is committed to protecting our customers. Our representatives will never ask for your complete social security number, date of birth, online banking password, or answers to your online security questions over the phone, via email, or text message. Do not respond to communications asking for this or other non-public personal information. Report all suspicious or unusual messages or phone calls to City National Bank immediately.

• Sender's e-mail address
To give you a false sense of security, the "From" line may include an official-looking e-mail address. E-mail addresses can easily be spoofed, so just because the sender looks trustworthy, doesn’t mean the e-mail is safe.

• Generic greeting
A fraudulent e-mail may have a generic greeting, such as "Dear Account Holder."

• False sense of urgency
Most fraudulent messages threaten to close your account or assess a penalty if you do not respond right away. A message that urgently requests you to supply sensitive personal information is typically fraudulent. City National Bank will never ask for your non-public personal information.

• Typos and grammatical mistakes
Mistakes are commonly found in fake e-mails and text messages.

• Fake links
Many fraudulent e-mails have a link that looks valid, but sends you to a fake site that may or may not have a URL different from the link. Always check where a link is going before you click. Move your mouse over the URL in the e-mail and look at the URL in the browser. As always, if it looks suspicious, don't click it.

• Attachments
Similar to fake links, attachments can be used in fraudulent e-mails. For increased security, never open unexpected attachments from anyone. City National Bank will never e-mail you a software update to install on your computer. Downloading an attachment or software update to your computer could cause you to download spyware, malware, or a virus.

• Evaluate your internal controls for online banking and conduct an annual risk assessment. Identify gaps and continuous improvement opportunities to ensure the safety of your financial data and resources.

• Ensure your computer is equipped with latest versions and patches of both anti-virus and anti-spyware software.

• Delete online user IDs as part of the exit procedure when employees leave your company. Periodically conduct a review of access assigned to current employees and remove capabilities when they are no longer required.

• Assign two administrators to manage any online financial service programs to reduce risk or the misappropriation of funds.

• Establish transaction limits for employees who initiate and approve online payments.

• Reconcile your accounts by carefully monitoring account activity and reviewing all transactions initiated by your company on a daily basis.

• Use strong, complete passwords that contain alpha/numeric characters and symbols, upper and lower case characters. Use a minimum of 8 characters for your password and avoid using birth dates, favorite colors, and names of pets.

• Change your passwords regularly and use a different password for each Web site you access.

• Never reveal your confidential login ID, password, PIN or answers to security questions to anyone.

• Never bank online using computers at kiosks, cafes, unsecured computers, or unsecured wireless networks.

• Prohibit the use of shared user names and passwords for your online banking accounts.

Protect Your Account

Prevent Misuse of Your Account.
Your role is extremely important in the prevention of any wrongful use of your account. You must promptly examine your statement upon receipt. If you find that your records and ours disagree, you must immediately contact CNB.

Protect Personal Information.
In addition to protecting your account information, you should take precautions to protect your personal identification information, such as your driver’s license, Social Security Number, etc. This information by itself or together with information on your account may allow unauthorized access to your account(s). It is your responsibility to protect personal information with the same level of care that you protect your account information.

Safeguard Your Online Password.
The password that is used to gain access to Online Financial Services through CityNET should be kept confidential. For your protection, we recommend that you change your online password regularly. We recommend that you memorize your online password and do not write it down. You are responsible for keeping your password, account numbers, and other account data confidential. If you believe that your online password may have been lost or stolen, or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your permission, notify CNB.

Notice Unauthorized Transactions in Your Accounts.
Notify us at once if you believe another person has improperly obtained your online password. Also notify us if someone has transferred or may transfer money from your bank deposit account without your permission, or if you suspect any fraudulent activity on your account. Only reveal your account number to a legitimate entity for a purpose you authorize (such as your insurance company for automatic payments). If your online password has been compromised and you tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your online password without your permission to access a bank deposit account. If you do NOT tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft, and we could have stopped someone from taking money without your permission had you told us, you could lose as much as $500.

• Visit your nearest City National Bank branch
