FAIRHAVEN, Mass. — The $395 million First Citizens' Federal Credit Union has had to notify members who hold cards issued on roughly 70 card accounts that they will be reissuing their cards. According to a story in local media, the credit union cards were compromised when thieves tapped into local restaurant chains' payment systems.
The media reports indicated that the FBI had become involved though the FBI office in Boston declined to comment on the active investigation. The credit union has not yet released any information about the costs of the breach but noted that it had been caught fairly early.
