Mercor Contractor Data Breach

What Happened?

In March 2026, Mercor publicly disclosed that it was affected by a supply-chain attack involving the LiteLLM open-source library. The incident allegedly exposed approximately 4 terabytes of contractor data, including Social Security numbers, government IDs, payment information, facial biometric data, voice recordings, and AI video interview footage. The hacking group LAPSUS$ has reportedly claimed responsibility and is allegedly auctioning the data on the dark web.

How Much Is Mercor Paying and What Can I Get?

If you are eligible and submit a claim, your compensation will depend on the outcome of your individual case, including factors such as the specific facts of your claim, the evidence provided, applicable laws, and the resolution reached through arbitration or settlement. Claims are brought as individual arbitration claims through JAMS, not as a class action. There is no guarantee of payment and all cases must be evaluated on an individual basis.

Am I Eligible to File a Claim?

You may be eligible if you signed a Mercor Worker Agreement or submitted a W-9, uploaded a passport, driver's license, or government ID for verification, completed a recorded AI video interview, assessment, or onboarding call, or received a breach notification from Mercor.
