On September 24, 2026, Walsh Financial Services LLC officially reported a data security incident to regulators in Indiana. The breach is noted to have occurred on April 22, 2026, and its investigation status is currently monitoring.

This incident involved the reported exposure of several categories of highly sensitive personal and financial information. The exposed data types include Full Name, Social Security Number, Financial Account Number, Date of Birth, Routing Number, Tax Return Information, Investment Portfolio Records, and Credit Score Information.

It is generally recommended to monitor financial account statements and credit reports for any suspicious activity. Consider placing a fraud alert or security freeze on credit files as a proactive measure. Remaining vigilant against phishing attempts and unexpected communications is also advisable.

What to do if you were affected

Based on the categories of information reported in this filing, these steps can help limit the risk of identity theft and fraud.

Freeze your credit
Place a free credit freeze with Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. A freeze blocks new accounts from being opened in your name and can be lifted anytime.
Guard against tax fraud
File your tax return as early as possible and consider requesting an IRS Identity Protection PIN so no one can file a fraudulent return in your name.
Watch your financial accounts
Review bank and card statements for unfamiliar activity and turn on transaction alerts. Report anything you don't recognize to your bank right away.
Stay alert to targeted scams
Be cautious of calls, texts, or emails that reference this breach. Legitimate organizations won't ask you to confirm sensitive details through an unsolicited message.
Keep your notification letter
Save the notice you received. It documents that your information was involved and is often needed to enroll in any credit monitoring offered or to join a related legal claim.
