π¨ Alert! JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, and TD Bank have some explaining to do! π±
It seems our beloved banking giants have been caught with their pants down, disclosing data breaches that have left some customers’ accounts and personal information at risk. π³π
In new filings with the Massachusetts state government, Chase says at least four customers in the state have been affected by multiple breaches. π±
In two incidents, Chase employees improperly accessed customers’ credit and debit card information and triggered fraudulent transactions, prompting the bank to close the affected cards, issue replacements, and reimburse the customers. π³πΈ
In the other two incidents, the bank says it mistakenly posted transaction details, including names, addresses, account numbers, and transaction amounts, to other customers’ accounts. At this point, no misuse due to those errors has been detected. π
Meanwhile, Bank of America says documentation relating to at least one customer’s savings bonds was lost in transit on February 14th. π
Attempts to recover the documentation, according to the North Carolina-based lender, have proved unsuccessful. π
“According to our records, the information involved in this incident was related to your Savings Bonds and included your first and last name, address, Social Security number, and account number.”
The lender says it is monitoring the customer’s banking account for any suspicious activity and is committed to resolving any unauthorized transactions. π΅οΈββοΈπ

TD Bank says it’s monitoring the account for fraud and is offering the customer a complimentary two-year membership to an identity theft protection and recovery service. π‘οΈπ³
