Full breach record for MoneyLine Lending →

MoneyLine Lending notified the New Hampshire Attorney General of a data event affecting one NH resident. On September 11, 2020, suspicious activity was detected in an employee's Office 365 email account. The actor likely gained access via a phishing email campaign. The incident was limited to one account; client data on a separate server was unaffected. Data potentially accessed included names, SSNs, driver's licenses, and financial account numbers. MoneyLine engaged forensic specialists, reset passwords, notified law enforcement, and provided 60 months of credit monitoring to the affected individual.
