AG Nessel is reissuing her consumer alert on data breaches following a recent cybersecurity incident at 700Credit LLC that has impacted nearly 6 million individuals nationwide, including more than 160,000 Michiganders. 700Credit, a Michigan-based company, provides services to auto dealerships that support consumer financing during the purchase credit application process, including credit reports and credit checks. The company announced that on October 25 a breach was discovered that compromised personal data collected from dealers between May 2025 and October 2025. The compromised information includes names, addresses, Social Security numbers, and dates of birth. 700Credit will begin mailing notice letters to impacted individuals on behalf of its dealer clients during the week of December 15.

“If you get a letter from 700Credit, don’t ignore it. It is important that anyone affected by this data breach takes steps as soon as possible to protect their information. A credit freeze or monitoring services can go a long way in preventing fraud, and I encourage Michiganders to use the tools available to keep their identity safe.” -AG Nessel
