Fraud Alert

Scammers are posing as our fraud department by phone. PWSB will never call you asking for sensitive information. If you receive a call from someone claiming to be from our Fraud Department, do not share any details and hang up immediately. Please contact us directly to verify.

Understanding Public Mortgage Records and Unsolicited Mail

Did you know that following the closing of your loan, certain information—including your name, mortgage lender, loan amount, and property address—becomes public record? This occurs because the mortgage document is filed with the Register Of Deeds. As a result, external companies may access this information and use it to send unsolicited marketing materials or misleading solicitations.

Some of these communications may be designed to appear as though they are officially issued by Port Washington State Bank. While the decision to engage with any offered products or services remains yours, we encourage careful review. Please note that all official correspondence from Port Washington State Bank will be provided on our formal letterhead.

Reducing Unsolicited Mail

To limit credit and insurance marketing offers, you may elect to opt out by visiting:
