First Financial Portfolio Data Breach:
Lawsuit Investigation
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed in light of the First Financial Portfolio data breach.
As part of their investigation, they need to hear from individuals who received a notice stating they were impacted.
On February 26, 2024, a significant data breach was discovered by Financial Business and Consumer Solutions, Inc. (FBCS), a debt collection agency that provided services to First Financial Portfolio Venture Capital, LLC (FFP) and its related entities, including First Financial Investment Fund Holdings, LLC; First Financial Investment Fund III, LLC; First Financial Investment Fund V, LLC; First Financial Investment Fund VI, LLC; First Portfolio Ventures I, LLC; and First Portfolio Ventures II, LLC.
The Financial Business and Consumer Solutions data breach involved unauthorized access to FBCS's network systems, occurring between February 14 and February 26, 2024. During this period, an unauthorized actor was able to access or obtain sensitive information from the network. Upon discovery, FBCS secured the compromised environment and initiated an investigation with the help of third-party forensic experts to understand the breach's full extent. After a review, FBCS acknowledged that personal information belonging to individuals connected to First Financial Portfolio might have been accessed or stolen during the breach.
According to a letter sent to the New Hampshire Attorney General's Office, FBCS notified First Financial Portfolio that additional impacted individuals were identified after the first round of notification letters was sent out. On October 17, 2024, First Financial Portfolio began sending breach notification letters to these individuals.
If your information was exposed in the breach, attorneys want to hear from you. You may be able to start a class action lawsuit to recover compensation for loss of privacy, time spent dealing with the breach, out-of-pocket costs, and more.
A successful case could also force First Financial Portfolio to ensure it takes proper steps to protect the information it was entrusted with.
