Lennar and Lennar Mortgage face class action over 2026 data breaches
A homebuyer filed a class action on August 17, 2026, in federal court in Miami against Lennar Corporation and Lennar Mortgage, LLC, alleging negligence in failing to prevent two 2026 intrusions that exposed customers' Social Security numbers, government identification numbers, driver's license numbers, dates of birth and financial account information. The suit says Lennar disclosed the incident around August 11, 2026, and posted a public letter about the May breach. The plaintiff claims unauthorized access or attempted access to at least one of her accounts, fraudulent transactions attempted in her name, and increased spam calls and texts. The complaint brings negligence and negligence per se claims, the latter tied to Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, and seeks class certification, damages, and an order requiring a comprehensive information security program, independent third-party security auditors, employee training, and limits on data retention. The allegations have not been ruled on by any court.
