🏢 About Equifax Lawsuits
Why Is Equifax Being Sued?
In September 2017, Equifax disclosed a massive data breach that compromised Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses, driver's license numbers, and credit card numbers for 147 million people — nearly half the US population. The breach stemmed from an unpatched web application vulnerability that Equifax failed to fix for months. Equifax reached a $700 million settlement with the FTC (including $425 million for consumer restitution), and has faced ongoing class actions over inaccurate credit reporting errors that damaged consumers' credit scores, mortgage applications, and employment prospects. Equifax has also settled lawsuits over selling inaccurate consumer data to lenders.
