Abri Credit Union Data Breach Exposes Social Security Numbers

On Dec. 1, 2025, Abri Credit Union discovered that it had experienced a major data breach affecting the personal information of its members. According to a disclosure filed with the Massachusetts Attorney General , the breach resulted from unauthorized access to Abri’s network between May 3 and May 4, 2024. During this brief but impactful window, an unauthorized actor accessed and potentially acquired sensitive member data.

The breach exposed a range of personally identifiable information (PII), including full names, Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, credit and debit card numbers, and financial account information. There is no indication that protected health information (PHI) was involved. The Massachusetts disclosure reports that 463 individuals in the state were affected, with the total number of impacted members likely higher nationwide.

The severity of this breach is considerable, as the compromised data can be used for identity theft, financial fraud and other malicious activities. The exact method by which the attacker gained access to Abri’s network has not been publicly detailed, but the incident prompted a comprehensive forensic investigation with external cybersecurity professionals. The breach was not detected until several months after the unauthorized access occurred, increasing the risk of misuse of the exposed information.
