Minnesota Credit Union Set All Bank Accounts Minus $10k To Get Attention To Call

Location: Minnesota

I got laid off from my job a couple months ago and as a consequence of trying to make end meet, I had to skip my credit card payment with my credit union last month. It isn't 30+ late, just a single payment which I was planning on making up using the extra check this month from unemployment.

I opened my bank account today to see what I had for groceries, and notice that every single account I had was 10k less than what was in it previously. I obviously called the bank and they said that they do this to get a banking customers attention to call them to discuss the overdue payment. They have since removed the fake 10k withdrawal (wasn't shown as a withdrawal, just that everything was 10k less, I just don't know what else to call it)

This feels like it could/should be illegal, but I'm not finding anything one way or the other, if anyone has any insight I'd love the help

Edit because this question keeps getting asked, I had a couple hundred total from all my accounts, I opened the app and saw all 3 accounts at -9000 and change
