By VerityCU December 31, 2020 Covid-19

Protecting our community during the Covid-19 pandemic

Updated 3/14/22

Protecting our members, employees and the community from the spread of the COVID-19 virus is critically important. At Verity, we are closely monitoring the current situation and following recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and local authorities.

The information below is intended to help our community navigate this situation. Please check back for updated community resources and information about Verity operations. We are all in this together. 

Update 3/14/22 masks optional

In accordance of state and federal guidelines, masks are optional in Verity branches starting March 14, 2022. For the safety of members and visitors, Verity employees will still be wearing masks.

Support for mental health and well-being

The pandemic has been stressful for many people, including those who haven't experienced mental health challenges in the past. Below are some support resources available to Washington State residents. For more information, visit the Washington State Coronavirus Response website

Be aware of fraud schemes and scams

The FBI is reporting an uptick in the number of fraud schemes related to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Verity will never call, email or text you and ask for your digital banking login information, debit card number, credit card number or PIN. Fraudsters are taking advantage of the current crisis. Never give this information to someone who calls, emails or texts you. If you are unsure of whether a message you are receiving is legitimate, please reach out to us at (800) 444-4589 or (206) 440-9000.

The FBI advises people to be on the lookout for the following:

  • Fake CDC emails: Watch out for emails claiming to be from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) or organizations claiming to offer information about the virus. Do not click on any links or attachments you do not recognize. Also, be wary of websites and apps claiming to track COVID-19 cases worldwide. 
  • Phishing emails: Emails asking you to verify personal information in order to receive an economic stimulus check are likely fake and looking to steal your personal information. Government agencies are not sending unsolicited emails seeking private information in order to send you money. Phishing emails may also claim to be related to charitable contributions, general financial relief, airline carrier refunds, fake cures/vaccines, and fake testing kits.
  • Counterfeit treatments or equipment: Be cautious of anyone selling products that claim to prevent, treat, diagnose, or cure COVID-19. Also be aware of counterfeit products for sanitizing and personal protective equipment.
