One Michigan credit union announced it is temporarily declining any use of its credit and debit cards at Wendy's restaurants.

The $301 million, Jackson, Mich.-based American 1 Credit Union stated this new policy will go into effect on Oct. 3 until further notice.

"While Wendy's has reported that the malware responsible for the cyberattacks has been disabled at all franchise locations affected by the data breach, community members have still been reporting fraudulent activity on their accounts, even after reissuance of their debit or credit card. Therefore, in order to protect member accounts, the credit union made the decision to decline all credit and debit card transactions at any Wendy's location until further notice," the credit union stated in a blog.
