On or around July 2, 2025, Carter Credit Union (“Carter”) became aware of suspicious activity on its computer system, indicating a data breach. Based on a subsequent forensic investigation, Carter determined that cybercriminals infiltrated this inadequately secured network and gained access to Carter’s files between June 25, 2025 and July 2, 2025. The investigation further determined that, through this infiltration, cybercriminals potentially accessed and/or acquired files containing the sensitive personal information of 68,934 individuals.
The information exposed in the data breach includes, but is not limited to:
- Names
- Social Security numbers
- Financial account information
- Medical information
- Health insurance information
- Driver’s license numbers
- Dates of birth
- Retirement plan information
As a result of the Carter data breach, these individuals’ personal and highly confidential information may be in the hands of cybercriminals who can place the information for sale on the dark web or use the information to perpetrate identity fraud.
