If you get a call and the person on the other line says they are representing Verity CU's Security Department, hang up. It's a scam targeted at getting your personal account information.
Today we've heard from various consumers (members and non-members) who are getting calls or voicemail from "Verity CU." They are being told that their debit card and checking account has been frozen and that they must call Verity CU's Security Department.
This is the latest scam aimed at getting your account number, debit card number and other personal information.. If you get a call, hang up-- it's not us! (The number the fraudster uses changes constantly. So far, the number 866-430-4333 has been used.) At the very least, do not give out any of your personal account information.
If you inadvertently shared your personal information, be it through this particular scam or not, please call us right away at (800) 444-4589 so we can take the necessary measures to protect your accounts with us.
