Migliaccio & Rathod, LLP, is investigating Happy State Bank (“HSB”) for releasing sensitive information in a data breach. Based in Texas, Happy State Bank is a subdivision of Centennial Bank. On or around July 28, 2022, an unauthorized third party hacked into HSB’s servers, gaining access to names and Social Security numbers (SSNs) of impacted individuals. NorthStar discovered the breach on or around Feb 8, 2023, and is only now informing affected individuals. The data breach occurred because of an email lapse.
In previous data breaches, victims of data theft have noticed identity theft attempts ranging from fraudulent charges on bank accounts or credit cards, or government services ordered in their name, or their information being posted on the dark web.
