Never mind the law, I wouldn’t let her rearrange the furniture in my basement.
If you look at the fine print; the cash is only for people without a credit monitoring service. For most people it will be a few years of credit monitoring; not cash.
You only get that $125 if you can prove you spent >10 hours mitigating risks of the breach, including having current credit monitoring.
If you didn’t even know about the breach until this week, you’re not getting $125 - and that’s most victims.
My, how times have. When President Bush announced that his tax cuts would result in many Americans receiving a rebate of $1,000, Nanzi Pelosi denounced it as chump change. Now, $125 is a nice chunk of change. demonicRATS are weird.
The real winners are the lawyers on each side.
Just like stealing cash from the tip jar.
I have a question. Who gave these credit agencies rights to our financial records?
I don’t ever remember giving them permission.
BS: Equifax suffered a huge breach in 2017 that exposed information including the social security numbers of 147 million people. Earlier this week, it emerged that the credit monitoring firm will be fined $700 millionand $425 million of that is earmarked for people affected by the breach, according to a site set up for those impacted.

Perhaps, but I’d be surprised if even 5M qualified people apply. People are lazy.
Hey! I get .21 cents while the lawyers get a hundred million. Seems fair.....
