Nubank Erroneous Liquidation Alert Sent to Clients
On 12 June 2026, Nubank announced that it had become aware of an incorrect message that was sent to customers claiming the company had been liquidated by Brazil’s central bank. The erroneous notification, which appeared in the lender’s mobile app and was also emailed to users, was described as a one‑time operational error. Dozens of customers reported receiving the false liquidation notice earlier on Friday, prompting Nubank to launch an internal investigation into the incident.
Nubank emphasized that the mistake did not compromise client data protection and that all of its active banking licences remain intact. The firm affirmed that its operations continue to function safely and stably, with no interruption to services. Nubank, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker NU as Nu Holdings, stated that the incident is under internal review and that it is taking steps to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
