Migliaccio & Rathod LLP is involved in the Equinox, Inc. data breach investigation that affected approximately 21,565 individuals and their personal information.
On April 29, 2024, Equinox, Inc. discovered suspicious activity on its network and launched an investigation to determine the nature and scope of the breach. As a result of the investigation, Equinox learned that certain files in its network may have been accessed or downloaded without authorization. Equinox conducted a comprehensive review of the potentially affected files, and on September 16, 2024, Equinox determined that some individuals’ personal and / or protected health information may have been affected as a result of this incident. Affected consumers were not notified of the Equinox, Inc. data breach until November 15, 2024. Equinox, Inc. discovered that hackers were able to compromise a significant amount of personal information. The compromised information includes a variety of highly sensitive details including:
- name,
- address,
- date of birth,
- Social Security number,
- driver’s license or other government identification number,
- passport number,
- financial account information,
- health insurance information,
- medical treatment or diagnosis information, and/or
- medication-related information
The Equinox, Inc. Data Breach Investigation
Equinox, Inc. informed the Maine State Attorney General’s office of the breach, where a copy of the consumer notification letter can be found. All of the information stolen is likely valuable and dangerous to affected victims. As is likely to be the case with the Equinox, Inc. data breach, in previous data breaches, victims of data theft have noticed identity theft attempts ranging from fraudulent charges on bank accounts or credit cards, to unauthorized credit card applications, to medical services or government services ordered in their name, to their information being posted on the dark web, to a massive uptick in the number of spam text messages, calls and emails received.
