If you got a notice that your personal information was caught up in True World Holdings' 2024 data breach, you have until September 8, 2026 to claim your share of a $325,000 settlement — up to $2,000 if the breach cost you money, plus a free year of credit monitoring. The breach hit in August 2024. According to the lawsuit, a cyberattack exposed sensitive personal data True World Holdings was holding — names, Social Security numbers, and dates of birth — and the complaint argued the company hadn't done enough to protect it. True World denies any wrongdoing but agreed to settle. The case is Byrd v. True World Holdings LLC (Case No. 2:24-cv-10927). It mainly covers current and former employees in the U.S. whose information was potentially compromised and who received a breach notice. There are three ways to benefit, and you pick what fits. If the breach caused you documented out-of-pocket losses — fraud, identity theft, time and money spent cleaning it up — you can claim reimbursement of up to $2,000. If you would rather not itemize losses, you can instead take a flat $50 cash payment. And regardless of which cash option you choose, every class member can elect one free year of credit monitoring that includes $1 million in identity-theft insurance, dark-web scanning, and access to a fraud resolution specialist. This one requires a claim by September 8, 2026 — there is no automatic payment. You file online using the unique ID and PIN from your notice, or mail a paper form. If you are claiming the up-to-$2,000 losses, you will need documentation tying the loss to the breach. Payments come by PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, a virtual prepaid card, or a mailed check. The final approval hearing is set for November 16, 2026.

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

  • You are an individual in the United States — mainly current and former employees of True World Holdings — whose personal information was potentially compromised in the data breach the company discovered in August 2024.
  • You received a notice of the data incident (it contains the unique ID and PIN you need to file online).
  • To claim the up-to-$2,000 reimbursement, you must have documented out-of-pocket losses fairly traceable to the breach.
  • To take the flat $50 payment, you simply must not be filing an unreimbursed-loss claim.
  • Any class member — regardless of cash option — can elect one free year of credit monitoring.

How Much Can You Get?

The $325,000 fund offers three benefits, and you choose. First, unreimbursed economic losses: up to $2,000 for documented out-of-pocket costs from the breach, such as fraud losses or the time and money spent resolving identity theft. Second, an alternative flat payment: if you do not file a losses claim, you can take a one-time $50 cash payment instead. Third, credit monitoring: every class member can elect one free year of one-bureau monitoring that includes $1 million in identity-theft insurance, real-time credit-file monitoring, dark-web scanning, public-records monitoring, and access to a fraud resolution agent. After the fund covers administration costs, attorneys' fees (up to $110,000), a service award of up to $5,000 to the class representative, and the cost of credit monitoring, the remainder is paid to approved claimants. Payments go out after the court grants final approval, and you can receive yours by PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, a virtual prepaid card, or a paper check.
