If we encounter any serious criminal violations on BeenVerified.com, this disqualifies the applicant from obtaining the verified badge from OpportunityZone.com. For elected officials, appointed staff or hired employees of an agency, a staff member on our team uses best efforts to verify the government official’s identity.
