Case overview
What this settlement is about
Fidelity Investments is facing a class action lawsuit after an unauthorized third party accessed the company's computer network between August 17 and August 19, 2024, potentially exposing customers' names, Social Security numbers, financial account information, and driver's license information in what's being called the Data Security Incident. Affected customers sued, and while Fidelity denies any wrongdoing, both sides chose to settle rather than continue fighting it out in court. Under the deal, Fidelity has agreed to set up a $2,500,000 fund to compensate people impacted by the breach. Those eligible can choose between a cash payment or credit monitoring services, and importantly, no proof of loss is needed to file a claim. The settlement has preliminary court approval, but a final sign-off from the Court is still required before any payments are issued.
