Migliaccio & Rathod LLP is involved in the RiteCheck Data Breach Investigation, regarding a breach that impacted an unknown number of individuals and their personal information.
On or around August 25, 2024, RiteCheck Cashing, Inc. (“RiteCheck”), RiteCheck, a check cashing service based in New York City, discovered unauthorized activity in its network. RiteCheck subsequently conducted an investigation which determined a cybercriminal may have copied files containing some individuals’ personal information from their network. The information includes:
- addresses,
- dates of birth,
- Social Security numbers,
- driver’s license numbers,
- government issued ID
- numbers, and
- payment card numbers
The RiteCheck Data Breach
RiteCheck 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 RiteCheck data breach, in previous cyberattacks, 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.
