Americans potentially affected by a 2024 data breach at Landmark Admin are urged to file claims for compensation by December 26th.Summary
Americans who may have had their data compromised in a 2024 data breach involving Landmark Admin, a third-party administrator for six insurance companies, are encouraged to file claims in a $6 million settlement before the December 26th deadline. The breach, which occurred between May 13 and June 17, 2024, potentially exposed sensitive information like Social Security numbers. Claimants can receive up to $2,500 with documented proof of out-of-pocket losses due to fraud or identity theft, or up to $30 without proof, though the latter amount may be adjusted based on the total number of claims. The affected insurance companies include American Benefit Life Insurance Company, American Monumental Life Insurance Company, Capitol Life Insurance Company, Continental Mutual Insurance Company, Liberty Bankers Life Insurance Company, and Accendo Insurance Company. The final approval hearing is scheduled for January 29, 2026, after which payments will be distributed. More information and claim filing can be found on the settlement website.
