Ca: Class action launched against auto lender for data breach

Posted on February 22, 2016 by Dissent

I know litigation can take a long time, but wow, this case is dragging on… and on…. The breach that forms the basis for this suit pre-dates this blog. 

Sarah Rubenoff reports:

Quebec law firm Lex Group Inc. announced Monday it has gained authorization to move forward with a data breach class action dealing with the loss of personal information of customers who in March 2008 leased a Chrysler, Dodge or Jeep vehicle from DaimlerChrysler Financial Services Canada Inc., now known as TD Auto Finance Services Inc.

Back in March 2008, a data tape that contained the personal information of all Chrysler Financial vehicle lease customers across Canada was lost — approximately 239,277 customers, the law firm said.
