Lincoln Investment Planning, LLC, a Pennsylvania-based broker-dealer and registered investment adviser, reported a data breach involving sensitive client information. The company began notifying affected individuals on September 17, 2026, though the exact date of the breach or discovery has not been publicly confirmed beyond the notification date. The incident has led to attorneys investigating whether a class action lawsuit can be filed.
The breach reportedly exposed Social Security numbers, financial account codes, credit/debit account information, government ID numbers, and health records. The specific number of affected individuals remains unknown, as does a state-by-state breakdown of those impacted. It appears to be a direct breach of Lincoln Investment Planning, LLC, rather than a vendor-related incident.
Key legal and regulatory details, such as exact affected counts, any state Attorney General filings, official breach notification letters, or confirmation of a filed class action lawsuit, are not yet publicly available. Additional information may emerge as investigations proceed and official notifications are processed.
