Item 1.  Security and Issuer.

                  This statement  relates to the class A common stock, par value
$.01 per share ("Shares"),  of Southern  Security Bank  Corporation,  a Delaware
corporation  (the  "Company").  The  offices of the  Company are located at 3475
Sheridan Street, Hollywood, Florida 33021.


Item 2.  Identity and Background.

                  (a)  This statement is filed by Philip C. Modder.

                  (b) Mr.  Modder's  business  address is 3475 Sheridan  Street,
Hollywood, Florida 33021.

                  (c) Mr.  Modder's  principal  occupation  is as  Chairman  and
President of the issuer,  Southern  Security  Bank  Corporation.  The  principal
business of the issuer is to act as a bank holding company for Southern Security
Bank (the "Bank"). Mr. Modder's business office is located at the offices of the
issuer and the Bank, 3475 Sheridan Street, Hollywood, Florida 33012.

                  (d)  During  the past  five  years,  Mr.  Modder  has not been
convicted in a criminal  proceeding  (excluding  traffic  violations  or similar
misdemeanors).

                  (e)  During  the past five  years,  Mr.  Modder has not been a
party to a civil  proceeding of a judicial or  administrative  body of competent
jurisdiction  which,  as a  result  of  such  proceeding,  subjected  him to any
judgment,  decree, or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting
or mandating  activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding
any violation with respect to such laws.

                  (e)  Mr. Modder is a U.S. citizen.


Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

                  On November 10, 1997, a Florida  corporation  named  "Southern
Security Bank Corporation"  ("Former SSBC") was merged with and into the issuer,
which was then named  "Southern  Security  Financial  Corporation."  Immediately
after the merger,  the name of the issuer was changed to "Southern Security Bank
Corporation." Pursuant to the terms of the merger, outstanding shares of class A
common stock of Former SSBC were  converted  into shares of Class A common stock
of the issuer on a three for one basis, and in the aggregate the shareholders of
Former SSBC received  class A common stock of the issuer equal to  approximately
95% of the total  outstanding  as a result of the merger.  As a  shareholder  of
Former SSBC, Mr. Modder received his Shares of the Company pursuant to the terms
of the merger in exchange for three times as many shares of class A common stock
of Former SSBC.


Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

                  Mr.  Modder  acquired  and  holds  the  Shares  for  long-term
investment  purposes.  Nevertheless,  Mr. Modder will  continually  evaluate the
business, financial condition, and prospects of the Company, market price of the
Shares,  return on his investment,  alternative  investments,  conditions in the
economy and his own need for  liquidity  in his  investments  with a view toward
determining  whether to hold,  decrease,  or increase his  investment in Shares.
From time to time, based upon such  evaluation,  Mr. Modder may sell some or all
of his Shares,  or he may purchase  additional  Shares, at varying prices on the
open  market,  in  privately  negotiated  transactions,  through the exercise of
employee stock options, and/or in other transactions.

                  Mr. Modder has not made any plans or proposals which relate to
or would  result  in:  (i) an  extraordinary  corporate  transaction,  such as a
merger,  reorganization,  or  liquidation  involving  the  Company or any of its
subsidiaries;  (ii) a sale or  transfer  of a  material  amount of assets of the
Company; (iii) any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the
Company,  including  any plans or  proposals  to change the number of or term of
Directors  or to fill any  existing  vacancies  on the Board;  (iv) any material
change in the  Company's  present  capitalization  or dividend  policy;  (v) any
material change in the Company's business or corporate  structure;  (vi) changes
in the Company's  charter,  by-laws,  or  instruments  corresponding  thereto or
actions  which may impede  the  acquisition  of  control  of the  Company by any
person; (vii) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from a
national  securities  exchange or to cease to be  authorized  to be quoted in an
inter-dealer  quotation system of a registered national  securities  association
(although,  it should be noted that the Shares are not presently listed with any
national securities exchange or quoted in any inter-dealer quotation system of a
registered national securities exchange); (viii) a class of equity securities of
the Company  becoming  eligible  for  termination  of  registration  pursuant to
Section  12(g)(4) of the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934;  or (ix) any action
similar to any of those enumerated above.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

                  (a) Mr.  Modder owns  beneficially,  as  determined  under the
rules and  regulations  of the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission,  1,048,213
Shares.  Such  Shares  include  options  to  purchase  335,556  Shares  that are
exercisable  within 60 days,  and 67,511  Shares that are owned by Mr.  Modder's
wife.  As of July 2,  1998,  the  1,048,213  Shares  that he  beneficially  owns
constitute approximately 21.9% of the Shares outstanding.

                  (b) Mr.  Modder  has sole  voting  and  investment  power with
respect to the 645,379  Shares that are owned by him,  and he has shared  voting
and investment power with respect to the 67,511 Shares owned by his wife.

                  (c) Mr.  Modder has not  effected any  transactions  in Shares
during the preceding 60 days.


Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
         to Securities of the Issuer.

                  Except with respect to the grant of options under the terms of
his employment contract with the Company, there are no contracts,  arrangements,
understandings,  agreements,  or relationships  (legal or otherwise) between Mr.
Modder and any person with respect to securities of the Company.
