Boeing Employees’ Credit Union Data Breach Investigation

The Lyon Firm is actively involved in class action personal privacy and data theft cases and is currently investigating Boeing Employees’ Credit Union data breach claims on behalf of plaintiffs in Washington and nationwide.

The Boeing Employees’ Credit Union has allegedly been hit with a recent data breach involving the sensitive personal identifiable information belonging to a large number of individuals.

Boeing Employees’ Credit Union (BECU) is a member-owned, not-for-profit credit union offering financial and banking services. The credit union was originally established to serve employees of The Boeing Company facing financial burden due to the Great Depression but now offers membership to anyone residing in Washington and select counties of Oregon and Idaho. BECU has more than 1.3 million members and more than 50 locations.

WHAT HAPPENED?

In June 2022, a printing vendor of the credit union discovered that it had experienced a data breach in which sensitive personal identifiable information belonging to BECU members may have been stolen. On July 25, 2022, Boeing Employees’ Credit Union began notifying potentially impacted individuals.

The type of information compromised may include the following:

• Name
• Social Security number
• Address
• Financial information (account numbers, card numbers, credit scores)
