CrossCheck Inc, a financial services company, recently disclosed a data breach that exposed sensitive consumer information. The company first detected unusual activity within its merchant portal on May 20, 2024, prompting an internal investigation into the nature and scope of the incident.

CrossCheck Data Breach Details

According to filings with the Vermont Attorney General, an unauthorized actor gained access to CrossCheck’s merchant portal between May 18 and May 20, 2024. During this time, certain confidential data was exposed. The company launched a comprehensive review to identify the specific information affected and the individuals impacted. By September 25, 2024, CrossCheck had completed its review of compromised files and began working with AutoNation to obtain address details for those affected. This process concluded on February 19, 2025.

On March 4, 2025, CrossCheck began notifying impacted individuals, outlining the nature of the breach and offering assistance. The compromised dataset included names and other sensitive details, though the full extent of the breach has yet to be fully disclosed. As part of its response, CrossCheck has reported the breach to federal law enforcement, enhanced its cybersecurity policies, and is providing affected individuals with complimentary credit monitoring services.

What Information Was Compromised?

The compromised data may include:

  • Names
  • Dates of birth
  • Social Security numbers
  • Financial Information

How to Know if You Were Affected

If you received a data breach notification from CrossCheck, your personal information may have been compromised. While most victims are officially notified through a “Notice of Data Breach” in the mail, the consequences—such as fraudulent transactions and identity theft—can begin long before the notice arrives.

Steps to Take if You Were Affected by the CrossCheck Data Breach

Stay Alert for Phishing Scams
Scammers may exploit the data breach by posing as CrossCheck. Be cautious of unexpected emails, texts, or calls requesting personal information. When in doubt, verify communications directly with the company through official channels.

Monitor Your Credit and Financial Accounts
Regularly check your bank statements, credit card activity, and credit reports for unauthorized transactions. Set up account alerts to detect suspicious activity early. Take advantage of free credit reports and review them carefully for unfamiliar accounts or discrepancies.

Consider Freezing Your Credit
For added security, request a credit freeze from all three major credit bureaus. This prevents new accounts from being opened in your name while still allowing you to use existing credit. You can temporarily lift the freeze when necessary if applying for credit.
