Email & Phone Fraud

The Generations Network ("TGN") is committed to providing you, our customer, with the best possible service. In order to provide this service, there may be times when a TGN representative will contact you, either by telephone or email. These representatives will always identify themselves as TGN employees and have specific and unique account information that they will verify with you. These agents may contact you for the following reasons:
  • Notifying you of a pending renewal
  • Checking to see if you are having success with your family history research
  • Alerting you to new subscriptions, books and services that may facilitate your family history research
  • Authenticating recent transactions
TGN representatives will not ask you for the following information:
  • Your Social Security Number
  • Confidential billing information without identifying unique account information concerning a specific transaction

Protect yourself from fraudulent Internet attempts by individuals claiming to be someone they're not by deleting unsolicited e-mails that ask for this type of personal information.

Protect yourself from fraudulent calls by individuals claiming to be someone they're not by following the guidelines stated above.

If you have doubts as to whether or not the individual is a TGN representative, do NOT give out any personal information and call us directly at 1-800-262-3787. We'll be happy to resolve any concerns or questions that you may have regarding your account with us.

If you suspect you've provided confidential information to a fraudulent site purporting to represent TGN, or your credit card has been abused in connection with a transaction with us, attach the suspicious message or transaction notice, with a detailed description of the incident, and send it to:
