Ticketmaster Data Breach:
Lawsuit Investigation
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed in light of the Ticketmaster data breach.
As part of their investigation, they need to hear from individuals who received a notice stating they were impacted.
Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. confirmed reports of a data breach in a May 2024 regulatory filing that stated the company "identified unauthorized activity within a third-party cloud database environment" containing data from its Ticketmaster subsidiary.
The filing, submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), came days after reports surfaced that a hacker group known as ShinyHunters offered for sale 1.3 TB of data allegedly belonging to 560 million Ticketmaster customers. The group says that the information includes names, addresses, email addresses, phone numbers, order details, the last four digits of payment cards and expiration dates.
Live Nation says that it first identified suspicious activity on May 20 and discovered on May 27 that a criminal threat actor appeared to be offering Ticketmaster user data for sale on the dark web. An unnamed spokesperson for Ticketmaster told TechCrunch that the third-party service provider mentioned in the SEC filing is Snowflake, but didn't say how data was exfiltrated from the cloud storage and analytics company's systems.
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 Ticketmaster to ensure it takes proper steps to protect the information it was entrusted with.
