Unauthorized banking: Fedro Asset Bank N.A. and Ledge Community Credit Union, N.A.

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has been informed by the State of Florida’s Office of Financial Regulation that entities using a multitude of fictitious names and websites are purporting to offer banking services in Florida. In some situations, they are misrepresenting themselves as national banks. Both groups have been using foreign-hosted websites designed to obtain information to likely perpetrate fraud, including identity theft. None of these entities are authorized to conduct banking business in the United States, and websites appear to spoof a legitimate financial institution.

Fedro Asset Bank, N.A. purports to conduct banking business from the following addresses:

• 10151 Deerwood Park Boulevard, Building 100, Suite 20-A, Jacksonville, FL 32256.
• 1000 Legion Place, S-1250, Orlando, FL 32801
• Innovation Square, 241 SW 7^th Terrace, Gainsville, FL 32601
