Yazoo Valley Electric Data Breach:
Lawsuit Investigation
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed in light of the Yazoo Valley Electric data breach.
As part of their investigation, they need to hear from individuals who received a notice stating they were impacted.
Yazoo Valley Electric Power Association, an electric cooperative serving six counties in Mississippi, reported a data breach involving unauthorized access to its network. Upon detection of suspicious activity on August 26, 2024, Yazoo Valley Electric acted to secure its network and engaged third-party specialists for an investigation. This revealed that an unauthorized actor accessed certain files, potentially compromising personal information of 20,997 individuals. By October 24, 2024, a review determined the specific data involved. Information exposed in the breach may include names and Social Security numbers.
Efforts to identify address information for individuals affected by the Yazoo Valley Electric Power Association data breach were completed by December 20, 2024, and data breach letters have since been mailed.
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 Yazoo Valley Electric to ensure it takes proper steps to protect the information it was entrusted with.
