USAA customers, check your credit card accounts

[TallBill]

When I logged onto my account today I had this message:

"We are canceling this account because of a recent non-USAA data compromise. You'll receive a new card with a new number to use. When you receive the new card, activate it immediately or your current card will remain active for 20 days after the postmarked date on the envelope containing your new card."


There was a link to this website as well http://www.2008breach.com/

Basically Heartland fucked up, so USAA is protecting their customers.

I had the same thing happen with my credit union card a couple weeks ago. I just got a new one. All they would tell me is that my acct # was compromised somehow.

Supposedly it doesn't effect all customers so maybe you're good.

I havent heard anything yet as well.

Reminded me of this.

Had to have my card replaced because of that years ago.

Maybe it just triggered today because there is a suspicious charge on my card. I have to ask my wife about it, but theres a $50 charge to SAL travel. Maybe thats a known thief.

I dont have credit, just insurance, but thanks for the tip.

Huh - I just used my USAA Visa at lunch today and it worked fine. I'll look into it.

Nothing on my account as of yet, but thanks for the heads up, I will keep an eye on it for sure.

Thanks for the heads up. So far nothing posted regarding such on my accounts, so no suspicious activity as of yet. Will keep tabs on my account though.

Hey, this happened a MONTH ago on my account. New cards in about a week, smooth transition. USAA rocks. They even refunded three transactions that were on my account that they said were fraudulent that I apparently had missed. I love USAA

Happened weeks ago to me. They sent my new card and my old one was valid from 20 days after the new one was shipped.

 

[TallBill]

Might be doing it in phases then. That's a lot of cards that exist. No fraudulent charges on my account. Everything checked out to be legit.

There wasn't any message like that when I logged in. Guess I'm safe.

 

[Soapy Bones]

I didn't have a warning but my brother told me over the weekend that he had gotten a notice to replace his card. Thanks for the notice though!

USAA ftw. I won't bank with anybody else.

Looks like I am OK also. USAA, one of the BEST Veterans Benefits!
