Investigation notes

Workers Federal Credit Union is a financial institution that provides banking, lending, and investment services to its members. As a financial entity, the organization typically collects and stores highly sensitive personal information, including government-issued identification numbers, detailed financial account records, and private contact details necessary for managing member assets. In 2025, the credit union officially reported a data security incident to the New Hampshire Attorney General, confirming that unauthorized access to their systems occurred. If you have received a formal data breach notification letter from the institution, it indicates that your personal information was likely stored within the affected environment. This notification is intended to inform you of the incident and provide guidance on the steps you should take to protect your financial identity.
