Virginia Crime Insurance Guide

Compare that rule with your crime policy’s funds-transfer and social-engineering coverage, and preserve records for prompt bank and law-enforcement notice. The computer-crime statute cited here is Code of Virginia § 18.2-152.3 (Computer trespass); ask whether the policy covers the resulting loss separately from a deceptive payment instruction.

What Should You Watch for With Crime Insurance in Virginia?

Review the Bank Security Procedure
Virginia law uses §§ 8.4A-202 and 8.4A-204, payment-order verification and refund rule. Ask your bank which call-back, token, dual-approval, or other verification steps apply to payment orders, and ask the agent whether the policy responds if a transfer follows a compromised account or spoofed instruction. Confirm the controlling sections with your banker: §§ 8.4A-202 and 8.4A-204, payment-order verification and refund rule. Confirm the controlling sections with your banker: §§ 8.4A-202 and 8.4A-204, payment-order verification and refund rule. ¹
Match Computer Crime to Policy Triggers
Virginia separately criminalizes conduct under Va. Code § 18.2-152.3. A criminal statute does not determine whether an insurer must pay your business, so ask the agent to distinguish unauthorized computer access, employee theft, fraudulent instructions, and funds-transfer fraud in the policy definitions and exclusions. The cited state provision is Computer trespass; ask the underwriter to identify the matching insured loss trigger. The cited state provision is Computer trespass; ask the underwriter to identify the matching insured loss trigger. ²
Keep a State Reporting Route Ready
Consumer complaint filing If a payment scam also affects a customer or vendor, save the instructions, emails, bank notices, and law-enforcement report, then use the Virginia Attorney General’s consumer-fraud route when the matter fits its remit; this complaint process does not replace prompt notice to your bank or insurer. The state's intake page is File a Complaint at https://www.oag.state.va.us/consumer-protection/index.php/file-a-complaint; keep its submission separate from notice to the bank and carrier.
