On Monday last week the bank blocked my account for FICA

On Monday last week the bank blocked my account for FICA. (I have had the account for over two decades, they have processed my home loan and I worked for the bank for a decade). I had to go into a branch (where i waited for 2 hours) to show them my ID. This morning when I logged into my mobile banking app, the bank had changed my email address to the work email address of a relative. I have never provided them with this information and I am shocked that someone at the bank did this, and I want to know what information was shared with this third party.
