What happened in the Addi data breach?
In March 2026, the Colombian fintech company Addi identified unauthorised activity on its platform and advised customers that "it is possible that your personal information may have been compromised". The "pay or leak" extortion group ShinyHunters subsequently claimed responsibility and published a large trove of personal data allegedly obtained from Addi. The data included 34M unique email addresses from credit scoring requests, credit bureau records, customer identity records and email validation logs. It also contained government issued IDs (Cédula de Ciudadanía), estimated income, socioeconomic levels, purchases and other credit-related data points.
The exposed data included 13 types of personal information. Learn more about what a data breach means for you.

Is the Addi breach still dangerous in 2026?
Yes. Stolen data from the Addi breach remains dangerous years after the incident. Attackers routinely compile data from multiple breaches to build complete profiles, and credentials from 2026 are still actively used in automated attacks today.
Personal information like email addresses, phone numbers, and dates of birth does not expire. Even if you changed your Addi password, the other exposed data can be combined with information from other breaches to target you. Learn how long stolen data stays dangerous.
What to do if your email was in the Addi breach
Change your Addi password immediately
Log into Addi and change your password to something strong and unique — one you have never used anywhere else. A password manager after a breach can generate and store a unique password so you never reuse one.
Change any account sharing that password
If you reused this password elsewhere, walk the password-reuse change checklist. You can also check whether that password appears in known leaks without sending the password itself.
Enable two-factor authentication
Turn on 2FA or a passkey after a breach on Addi and every important account. Even if your password is known, attackers cannot sign in without the second factor.
Check your other accounts for this breach
Run a full email scan to see every breach your address appears in — not just this one. Then follow the after-breach playbook. If a password from this incident is still in use, check it without sending the password itself.

A leaked email plus a public people-search page makes phishing more convincing. That is a separate job from changing passwords. See the data broker opt-out guide for official forms and, if you want help, removal services.
