Letter sent out to an unknown amount of 1st Bank customers on Oct 16. Any typos are my own. -- 1ST BANK Data Corporation 12345 W. Colfax Ave Lakewood, Colorado 80215 (303) 232-3000 October 16, 2006 [Customer Name] [Customer Address] Dear FirstBank Customer: We have been notified by Visa U.S.A. that a listing of valid Visa card numbers has been obtained by an unauthorized person or persons who gained access to a merchant card processor's transaction database. For privacy reasons, Visa cannot disclose the name of the processor. Your FirstTeller Visa Check Card number was among those that were compromised. Although we believe the possibility of your card being used for fraudulent transactions is minimal, we are going to issue you a new card which you should receive by 10/27/2006. Effective 11/01/2006, your existing FirstTeller Card, ending in ####, will no longer work. If you have not received a new card by 10/27/2006, please notify us. Any recurring payments that you have scheduled with your existing FirstTeller Card will need to be transferred to your new card. We aplogize for any inconvenience this situation may cause you. We would also like to reassure you that the compromise of information occurred at a merchant card processor's location, not FirstBank and therefore your account information at FirstBank has not been obtained by these unauthorized indivuduals. If you have any questions concerning this letter, please call us at (303)237-5000 or 1-800-964-3444 if you are outside metro Denver. Sincerely, Lovonne Maness Dat Processing Officer _______________________________________________ Dataloss Mailing List (dataloss () attrition org) http://attrition.org/dataloss Tracking more than 137 million compromised records in 430 incidents over 6 years.
