What Happened?

On or around August 9, 2024, AODFCU discovered that an unauthorized individual had accessed its internal network. The breach was promptly contained, and the credit union launched an investigation with the help of third-party cybersecurity experts. On March 4, 2025, the investigation confirmed that a malicious actor had gained access to and may have acquired confidential customer files during the period of August 8–9, 2024.

What Information Was Exposed?

The breach involved highly sensitive personally identifiable information (PII), including:

• Names
• Social Security numbers
• Driver’s license numbers
• Financial account details
• Credit and debit card numbers

While AODFCU has stated that there is no current evidence of misuse, this type of information is often targeted by cybercriminals for identity theft, fraudulent financial activity, and unauthorized account access.

• 400 individuals in Texas
• 42 individuals in Massachusetts

Notifications were made to the appropriate state authorities, including attorney general offices in Massachusetts, Texas, Vermont, and New Hampshire between March 27–31, 2025.
