A major banking conversion is set to take place, affecting accounts previously held with Comerica. The transition to Fifth Third will occur over Labor Day weekend, starting on September 4 and completing by September 8. This change may attract fraudsters, who often prey on uncertainty and fear surrounding financial transactions.

Fifth Third had announced its acquisition of Comerica in October 2025, with the Federal Reserve Board approving the deal three months later. The acquisition was completed in February 2026. Further details about the conversion and precautions against potential fraud are available from Fifth Third.
