Rio Bank

🔐🚔Rio Bank had the privilege of hosting Fraud Symposiums at our Headquarters in McAllen and at The Edge in Fredericksburg—and what an incredible turnout it was!

Guests heard from an outstanding lineup of speakers, including representatives from the FBI and local law enforcement agencies, who shared valuable insights into today’s most common scams, fraud trends, and practical ways to protect yourself, your family, and your finances.

At Rio Bank, we’re committed to helping our communities stay informed, empowered, and one step ahead of fraudsters. Education is one of the best defenses against scams, and we were thrilled to bring these important conversations to our customers and neighbors.

A special thank you to Eaker Barbecue for providing an amazing meal for our Fredericksburg attendees. Great food and great conversation made for a memorable event!

Thank you to everyone who joined us, asked questions, and helped make these symposiums such a success. Together, we’re building stronger, safer communities.

💡 Remember: If something seems too good to be true, it probably is. Stay alert, stay informed, and when in doubt, give your local Rio Bank banker a call—we’re always here to help.

Please join us in congratulating Ford Sasser on his induction into the Texas Bankers Hall of Fame! 🎉

Ford served as Chairman of the Texas Bankers Association from 2022 to 2023 and sits on the advisory board of the Commercial Banking Program at Texas A&M. In addition, Sasser was appointed by the governor to serve as a public member on the board of directors of the State Bar of Texas. He has served on various boards across the state and in his community. In 2007, he and his wife, Abbie, also co-founded Can Achieve Maximum Potential (C.A.M.P.) University, a day habilitation program serving young adults with special needs in the Rio Grande Valley.

In 2025, Ford was inducted into the Rio Grande Valley Sports Hall of Fame for his many years as a football official at the high school and college levels.
