I've never seen an instance of that, and have never heard of an institution asking for private info out in the open. As I said, organizations should highlight security concerns when the opportunity presents itself. Ryan Kristen,

I disagree that lots of folks are giving out private information. I’ve never seen an instance of that, and have never heard of an institution asking for private info out in the open.

As I said, organizations should highlight security concerns when the opportunity presents itself.

I think the organization would be wise to remind people that these areas are public and they still need to use private messages to communicate their account info.

The advocacy point you made is a good one - it's the credit union way. The same point is also valid for other businesses as well. Thanks for the comment JJ.

But that can't prevent credit unions from exploring how to use this ever-changing environment to enhance internal operations, as well as provide relevant messaging to members. In fact, credit unions can use this as an opportunity to ADVOCATE for their members' best interests. How? By getting on the social media playing field, staying on top of the latest issues, and using it as a platform to communicate with members on personal finance matters AS WELL AS how members can protect themselves.
