NFM Lending Investigates Alleged Data Breach After Hacker Group Claims 2.5TB Leak On September 7, 2026, the hacker group Interlock claimed responsibility for a suspected ransomware attack on NFM Lending, a Maryland-based residential mortgage lender operating in 49 states. The group alleged the breach exposed over 2.5 terabytes of sensitive data, including names, Social Security numbers, financial details, loan terms, addresses, and contact information belonging to more than 1 million clients and employees. Dark web monitoring sites, including Ransomware.live, reported the incident, though NFM Lending has not confirmed the breach’s scope or authenticity. Legal teams are now investigating whether a class action lawsuit can be filed on behalf of affected individuals, including current and former clients and employees. Potential claims may seek compensation for privacy violations, financial losses, and other damages. As of September 9, 2026, no further details about the breach’s nature or NFM Lending’s response have been disclosed. The investigation remains ongoing.
