NORTH HAVEN, Conn.–Plaintiffs are being sought for a potential class action suit against Connex CU in the wake of a data breach the credit union announced in early June.
The $1-billion Connex CU said its investigation determined the compromised information included a range of personally identifiable information, including names, account numbers, Social Security numbers, and other government-issued identification used to open accounts, such as state ID cards.
Connex Credit Union notified affected consumers by U.S. mail beginning Aug. 6, 2025, and completed its review of the incident on July 27, 2025, according to its report of the data breach to the Texas and California attorneys general earlier this month.
Similar to the experiences of other credit unions that have been targeted by breaches, law firms are seeking plaintiffs for litigation in the matter, with ClassAction.org stating it working with attorneys who are looking into whether a class action lawsuit can be filed.
What Plaintiffs are Being Told
“If your information was exposed in the data 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,” ClassAction.org says on its website. “A successful case could also force Connex Credit Union to ensure it takes proper steps to protect the information it was entrusted with.”
