On January 20, 2009, Heartland Payment Systems, the nation's sixth-largest provider of credit and debit card processing services, announced that its processing systems had been breached sometime last year, allowing thieves to capture confidential customer card data from the magnetic strip on the back of the card. The compromised data includes name, card number, expiration date, and CVV values.
Thus far, Notre Dame Federal Credit Union has not discovered any fraud on its members' accounts. However, we have blocked any cards that have been reported compromised. As of January 22, the number of cards that have been blocked is approximately 1,800.

Security Notice
Please be aware of credit card and e-mail scam operations that ask you for your credit card account numbers, your credit union account numbers, or your personal identification numbers.
Notre Dame Federal Credit Union will never contact you via e-mail requesting your personal account information.
These requests are usually misleading or fraudulent, and should be reported. Credit union members are recognizing and reporting such spoofing schemes including those that are made to appear as though they originated from various financial institutions, including the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA).
Legitimate financial institutions will never contact you to ask for personal account information, and anyone who may have received such a request should report it immediately.
Notre Dame Federal Credit Union has multiple safeguards in place to protect you from fraud schemes, but new scams are constantly surfacing and you need to be alert to questionable requests for personal account information, particularly over the Internet.
