Crossroads Trading Data Breach Class Action

At Console & Associates, our data breach lawyers are closely examining the recent Crossroads Trading data breach. This data breach was disclosed following a cyber security incident at Crossroads Trading, which may have affected an undetermined number of individuals, potentially exposing sensitive personal identifiable information.

What Happened?

A recent report from the Attorney General of Texas states that the Crossroads Trading data breach occurred due to a cyber security incident where an unauthorized party gained access to the company's IT network. This network intrusion allowed the unauthorized party to access files containing confidential consumer information.

The compromised information includes names, Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, and other government-issued identification numbers of affected individuals. The extent of the breach appears significant, given the sensitive nature of the exposed data.

Data breach letters were sent out by Crossroads Trading on March 26, 2025, informing affected individuals about the nature of the incident and compromised data. According to an FAQ posted on the Crossroads Trading website, these letters contain details about what specific information was exposed for each recipient.
