TIAA-CREF has been informed by Epsilon, a vendor we use to 
send emails, that files containing the first names, last names 
and email addresses of some TIAA-CREF participants were 
accessed without authorization. 

We have not shared any participant account or financial information 
with Epsilon.  So, this incident has not compromised your TIAA-CREF 
accounts and they remain secure. For your security, however, 
we wanted to call this matter to your attention.  

As always, do not reply to emails asking for your personal 
information, account numbers or any other type of confidential 
information.  TIAA-CREF will never ask for your personal 
information or login credentials in an email.  

Below are some additional precautions we recommend you follow:

-- Do not give your TIAA-CREF user ID or password in email. 
-- Do not respond to emails that require you to enter personal 
   or financial information directly into the email. 
-- Do not reply to emails asking you to send personal information. 
-- Do not use your email address as a login ID or password. 
-- Do not respond to emails threatening to close your account 
   if you do not provide personal information.

We regret any inconvenience this may have caused and will keep 
you informed of relevant updates. For more information on 
TIAA-CREF's commitment to keeping your personal information secure,
