Who should I contact if I’m a victim of identity theft?
If you believe that your card, account number, PIN or any combination of the three has been lost, stolen or compromised, please call the credit union immediately:
US: (888) 241-2510
International: (909) 941-1398
The sooner we know your card is out of your possession, the sooner we can keep you and your account safe! If you need a replacement card, we can issue you one immediately at the credit union.

Inform any one of the above agencies that you are a victim of identity fraud, and request that a “fraud alert” be place in your file. The fraud alert requests creditors to contact you before opening any new accounts or making any changes. Once the credit bureau confirms your fraud alert, the other two credit bureaus will be automatically notified.
