Cash stolen from scores of LMCU accounts

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — About 100 Lake Michigan Credit Union customers’ debit cards were compromised over the weekend.

Some victims told 24 Hour News 8 thousands of dollars were stolen from their accounts.

Terrence Dalton realized something was wrong when he tried withdraw $20 for his granddaughter’s birthday over the weekend. The ATM he was using said he had reached his limit. When he went to the bank Monday, he found $2,800 had been removed from his account fraudulently.

“I said, ‘Could you give me a print out of what’s going on?’ She (the teller) said, ‘Well, you took $1,000 out yesterday, took $1,000 out this day, like $800 here.’ I’m like, ‘No,'” Dalton recounted while speaking with 24 Hour News 8 Monday.

Others had similar stories and described the same feeling of panic when they realized their information had been compromised.
