A $177 million settlement is available to AT&T customers impacted by data breaches that occurred on March 30, 2024, and July 12, 2024, where personal data was compromised and potentially exposed on the dark web. Eligible claimants—current or former U.S. customers—can file a claim online through a dedicated website, providing either a Class Member ID, email address, AT&T account number, or full name. The deadline to submit claims is December 18th. Potential payouts range up to $5,000 for losses related to the first breach, $2,500 for the second, and $7,500 for those affected by both, contingent upon documented losses. A court hearing to approve the settlement is scheduled for January 15, 2026, and payment distribution timelines remain uncertain.
