STIIIZY Data Breach Class Action

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

What Happened?

A recent report from the Texas Attorney General states that STIIIZY experienced a data security incident resulting in unauthorized access to consumer information. Information on the data breach is still limited but it could have occurred either through direct network compromise or through a third-party vendor security incident. An investigation was launched that confirmed that the compromised information includes:

• names,
• addresses,
• dates of birth,
• medical information,
• driver's license numbers,
• and other government-issued identification.

Data breach letters are expected to be sent by STIIIZY following their December 23, 2024 notice to the Texas Attorney General, informing affected individuals about the nature of the incident and compromised data.

Steps To Take If You Were Affected By A Data Breach

1. Monitor all accounts and credit reports closely
   1. Set up alerts for suspicious activity
   2. Review all financial statements thoroughly
   3. Request free credit reports and examine them for unauthorized entries
      
      
2. Consider freezing your credit
   1. Contact all three major credit bureaus to place a freeze

   1. Be wary of unexpected emails or messages claiming to be from STIIIZY
   2. Don't click on suspicious links or download unexpected attachments
   3. Verify all communications through official channels
      
      
4. Change passwords for affected accounts
   1. Create strong, unique passwords for each account
   2. Use a combination of letters, numbers, and special characters
   3. Consider using a password manager for better security
      
      
5. Enable two-factor authentication where possible
   1. Add this extra layer of security to all important accounts
   2. Use authenticator apps rather than SMS when available
   3. Keep backup codes in a secure location
