TIPS TO AVOID BEING A VICTIM

Independently verify the identity of any company, charity, or individual that contacts you regarding COVID-19.

Do not purchase test kits or items that purport to cure COVID-19 online.

Do not click on links or reply to texts from unknown sources as these may download malware and viruses to computers or devices.

Check the websites and email addresses offering information, products or services related to COVID-19. Be aware that scammers often employ addresses that differ only slightly from those belonging to the entities they are impersonating.

Be wary of unsolicited emails offering information, supplies, or treatments for COVID-19 or requesting your personal information for medical purposes.

Check online reviews of any company offering COVID-19 products or supplies. Avoid companies whose accountholders have complained about not receiving items.

Be wary of any business, charity, or individual requesting payments or donations in cash, by wire transfer, gift card, or through the mail. Don’t send money through any of these channels.

Be cautious of “investment opportunities”, tied to COVID-19, especially those based on claims that a small company’s products or services can help stop the virus. If you decide to invest, carefully research the investment beforehand. For information on how to avoid investment fraud, visit the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) website.

In recent weeks, outbreaks of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic have become a public health concern. LOCO CU will always take the appropriate and proactive steps to help our employees, our members, and our communities.

According to The Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the immediate risk of being exposed to the virus that causes COVID-19 continues to be low. We know that the virus spreads much like the flu does. In an effort to curb the spread of germs, all of our locations are cleaned regularly and are disinfected with approved cleaners.

We are asking our employees and members to practice caution when in public places and follow the basic practices below:

  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds

  • If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol

  • Clean your workspaces or other high-traffic areas in your home and office 

  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands 

  • Avoid close contact with people who are sick
