- Shannon L.I’ve got to tell y’all about a great experience I recently had at OnPoint Community on Lombard! As a freelance writer, I’m often solicited for work from various industries on various platforms. I was invited to apply for a position and was eventually ‘hired’ after I completed a very lengthy assessment. They had amazing GlassDoor Reviews, dozens of YouTube videos, and extensive social media accounts (including LinkedIn), so they were legit to me until they wanted to send me a check to purchase equipment. Yep. That’s where it started to go south, but I still wasn’t completely SURE. That’s where my banker came in. I took the check to OnPoint Community Credit Union on N. Lombard and told the tellers I needed to talk to a banker privately. I spent a good hour with ‘Jackie’ in his office, examining the check, doing further online research, and escalating the issue to the fraud department. The next day, Jackie phoned me to tell me that I was almost involved in a disastrous scam that would have left me on the hook for almost 6K! Scammers are savvy. Be proactive and protect yourself. Jackie’s customer service was impeccable! Bravo
