To place a Stop Payment on an ACH transaction or an automatic payment, please visit or call your local branch or call our Customer Care Center at 800.374.6123.

Stop Payments on these items must be placed at least 3 business days before the item is scheduled to be taken out of your account.

Wire transfers are secure when you know the recipient, but scammers often try to trick people into sending money. Before you begin a wire transfer, consider these questions:

1. Do you know and trust the person or business you are sending money to?
2. Have you verified the wiring instructions directly with them (using a verified phone number or in person)?
3. Have you recently received updated payment instructions from an existing person or vendor?
4. Are you sure this payment request is not the result of a scam or unexpected email/text/call?

If you are unsure, stop and visit or call your local Peoples Bank branch before proceeding. For more information on the different types of scams and how to detect fraudulent activity, visit the Peoples Bank Fraud Prevention Center.

To send a wire transfer, visit your local Peoples Bank branch or log into online banking (business only).

International: You need the recipient’s name, address, bank information (SWIFT code) and account number.

Domestic: You need the recipient’s name, address, bank wire routing number and account number.

Wire transfers are secure when you know the sender, but fraudsters can create fake invoices or over-payment scams to direct funds to themselves and even take over a bank account.

Watch for these red flags:

• Unusual Communication from a strange email address or phone number with typos or odd wording.
• Urgent or secret requests to send money quickly.
• Overpayment notices with a request to return funds via wire, cryptocurrency, P2P, gift cards, etc.
• Someone stating they are unable to open an account and need help to receive money
• You’ve won prize money but you need to pay a fee to receive it.

If you are unsure, stop and visit or call your local Peoples Bank branch before proceeding. For more information on the different types of scams and how to detect fraudulent activity, visit the Peoples Bank Fraud Prevention Center.
