Security and anti-phishing

Dean has nothing to log into and never asks you for anything private.

MeetDean.com is an independent editorial site about publicly listed U.S. credit cards. It is not a bank, not an issuer, and not a place you ever type an account number. Here is exactly how to tell a real Dean page from an impostor.

01

Dean never asks for credentials

There is no sign-in, no account, no password, and no application form anywhere on meetdean.com. Dean never asks for your card number, Social Security number, bank login, one-time passcode, or account password, and never asks you to verify or reactivate an account. Any page that requests those while using the Dean name is not us.

  • The only domain Dean operates is meetdean.com, including www
  • The only address Dean writes from is [email protected]
  • Applications happen on the issuer's own website, never on Dean
  • Report anything suspicious using the Dean name to [email protected]
02

Dean is not the issuer, and says so before every hand-off

No bank, issuer, or card network owns, sponsors, endorses, or is affiliated with Dean. Card names and logos are trademarks of their issuers and appear only to identify the products Dean reviews. When you click through to a card, Dean shows an interstitial that names the destination host, states plainly that Dean is not that issuer, and repeats that Dean never asks for credentials. Dean does not bounce you silently onto a bank's domain, and does not frame, mirror, proxy, or reproduce any issuer's site.

  • Outbound links go only to the issuer's own verified page
  • Every hand-off shows the full destination URL before you continue
  • Dean copies no issuer page layout, login screen, or account flow
03

What Dean collects, which is almost nothing

Dean stores no accounts because there are none. Wizard answers stay in your own browser. Outbound clicks record an anonymous click identifier so Dean can reconcile referral credit, and that identifier is tied to no name, email, or financial detail. Full detail lives in the privacy policy.

  • No user database and no stored personal or financial data
  • No credential collection of any kind, anywhere on the site
  • Security or abuse reports: [email protected]

Tell Dean what you need. I’ll take it from there.
