Time is running out to claim part of a $3.25 million settlement from a 2021 data breach at USAA.
Personal data of some 22,600 people was compromised in the breach of the financial services company that serves members of the military, veterans and their families. The suit claimed USAA didn't properly protect the data, something the company has denied.
USAA customers whose personal information was accessed, stolen or compromised as a result of the incident are potentially eligible for part of the settlement. It's unclear how much each claimant will receive.
Qualifying members of the claim will have received notification via email or in the mail from USAA after the settlement was reached in December 2024. Both contained specific ID numbers for your review - a claimant ID code and a confirmation code.
If someone impacted by the breach does not file a claim, they may not receive a payment.
The deadline to file a claim is April 7 at midnight. You can file a claim here or mail a form to Angeion Group LLC, 1650 Arch Street, Suite 2210, Philadelphia, Penn., 19103. Payments will be made after the final hearing on May 21.
