from The National Pulse:
An unknown number of Bank of America customers found their accounts with a zero balance on Wednesday, as many complained of outages and disruptions online. According to Downdetector, thousands of customers reported being unable to access their bank accounts, while those who could found they had zero or missing balances. The incident incidents peaked shortly before 1 PM ET.
Many individuals took to social media platforms X (formerly Twitter) and Reddit to express their concerns, noting while balances were missing, debt amounts were still visible. The bank’s app confirmed the situation by notifying users of the temporary unavailability of accounts and balances. Some customers reported intermittent access to their accounts, but the scope of those affected remains uncertain.

Bank of America boasts 58 million clients utilizing its digital services. The incident follows other notable service outages this week, including those experienced by Spotify, Verizon, and PlayStation.
While it is unknown whether the disruptions may be related to possible cyber attacks, hostile hacking operations against the United States have increased in recent years. Last year, Iran-backed hackers broke into critical U.S. infrastructure in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania, where the local Municipal Water Authority announced that a water pump on a drinking water supply line had been taken over.
The number of cyber attacks on the U.S. power grid also increased last year, with at least 94 attacks on crucial electronic infrastructure in the first half of 2023.
