Apex Auto Finance data breach

Clerk's notes

Apex Auto Finance has formally notified the Georgia Attorney General about a significant data security incident. The company reported that an unauthorized party gained direct entry into its internal loan origination system.

The breach, which Apex Auto Finance reported on June 15, 2026, officially compromised the personal records of approximately 130,000 current and former loan applicants who had submitted their information to the company.

According to the filing, the compromised files include SSN, Financial Account details, and Credit Score Data. These categories of information are highly sensitive and are frequently collected by financial institutions during the car loan application process.

The exposure of SSN and Credit Score Data places individuals at a substantially elevated risk of targeted identity theft, unauthorized credit account openings, and fraudulent loans being taken out in their name. Additionally, exposed Financial Account information makes victims vulnerable to unauthorized withdrawals and direct financial fraud, which can be challenging and time-consuming to resolve.

Anyone who received a formal data breach notification letter in the mail from Apex Auto Finance should carefully review the information provided and consider their next steps.

Our firm is currently evaluating the details of this incident and the potential legal implications for those affected. We are reviewing this case to understand the full scope of the breach and to determine avenues for legal recourse on behalf of victims.

If you received a notification letter, you may be eligible to participate in a class action investigation. We encourage affected consumers to contact our firm today to request a completely free, no-obligation case review to discuss their options.
