Equifax

Recently there was a major settlement due to a breach from Equifax. You could choose from up to one hundred twenty-five dollars or three years of credit monitoring. Now they are saying you should have chosen the monitoring because you may never see that money.

Millions of people had their personal information compromised in the Equifax data breach back in 2017. If you were one of them, a check for $125 could be all yours.

Equifax, the consumer credit reporting agency, experienced a security breach which compromised the personal information of 143 million people, including Central New Yorkers.
