Unfortunately, some people choose to try and exploit others during difficult times. We want to remind you that we’ll never ask you for password, PIN, or other account information when reaching out to you. We recommend you read the Federal Trade Commission’s helpful tips on how to keep scammers at bay.

Fraudsters are leveraging fears over the coronavirus as an opportunity to for new scams. We’re taking steps to warn and protect our members.

• Individuals and businesses selling fake cures for COVID-19 online and engaging in other forms of fraud.  This includes going door-to-door around the Pittsburgh area.
• Phishing emails from entities posing as the World Health Organization or the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
• Malicious websites and apps that appear to share virus-related information to gain and lock access to your devices until payment is received.
• Seeking donations fraudulently for illegitimate or non-existent charitable organizations.
• The IRS urges taxpayers to be on the lookout for scam artists trying to use the economic impact payments as cover for schemes to steal personal information and money. Remember, the IRS will not call, text you, email you or contact you on social media  asking for personal or bank account information – even related to the economic impact payments. Also, watch out for emails with attachments or links claiming to have special information about economic impact payments or refunds.
• Scammers know that finding a job can be tough. To trick people looking for honest work, scammers advertise where real employers and job placement firms do. They also make upbeat promises about your chances of employment, and virtually all of them ask you to pay them for their services before you get a job. But the promise of a job isn’t the same thing as a job. If you have to pay for the promise, it’s likely a scam.

Criminals will likely continue to use new methods to exploit COVID-19 worldwide that could include payment relief, job opportunities, and payday loans to name a few. Also, the federal government will never ask for personal information such as a bank account or social security number.

If you think you are a victim of a scam or attempted fraud involving COVID-19, individuals can report it through a number of platforms:

• Contact the National Center for Disaster Fraud Hotline at 866-720-5721 or via email at disaster@leo.gov
• Report it to the FBI at tips.fbi.gov
• If it's a cyber scam, submit your complaint through https://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx
• Contacting local law enforcement

We’re participating in the Paycheck Protection Program to help our business members during this challenging time.

Paycheck Protection Program

The Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSA) was enacted on December 27, 2020. The new law, the federal government’s follow-up to the CARES Act, provides for renewed stimulus payments to individuals and businesses and includes significant provisions relating to the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP).

The CRRSA allocates approximately $285 billion for a new round of PPP loans. First-time borrowers and prior PPP borrowers are both eligible for this funding, regardless of whether any previous PPP loans have been re-paid or forgiven.

The loans are available to businesses with 300 or fewer employees, and the maximum loan amount is now $2 million.

Previous Paycheck Protection Program Loan Participants With Clearview

If you received a previous PPP loan from Clearview and need another PPP loan for $150,000 or less, please complete this form.

If you received a previous PPP loan from Clearview and need another PPP loan for more than $150,000, you will need to provide a financial statement that indicates that your 2020 earnings were at least 25% less than your 2019 earnings. Once you have this financial statement, please complete this form.

If you have other questions about the Paycheck Protection Program, please complete this form to contact our Business Lending Department 

Clearview will only accept PPP loan applications from existing business members. Membership must have been established by December 31, 2020. Applications must be received by March 31, 2021.

Additional information on Coronavirus Relief Options can be found on the SBA website.

Please keep in mind that the program guidelines were authorized by the Treasury Department and the Small Business Administration. Clearview Federal Credit Union did not establish the eligibility rules, lending guidelines, forgiveness guidelines, or loan terms.
