Hot Take:

LoanDepot got a surprise visit from the digital boogeyman, and it seems they didn't serve him tea! In what appears to be a ransomware attack, the mortgage and loan giant has had to pull down the shutters on some of its systems. The silver lining? At least they didn't have to endure the awkward "Your money or your data" conversation yet. But as we all know, silence can be ominous too.
