Experian agrees to pay $22.45 million for mistakenly claiming some consumers were high risk. Here's a summary of what happened: Consumers claimed they couldn't get the financial credit they deserved because the credit-reporting agency disseminated inaccurate information that hurt them.

If you contacted Experian between July 1, 2018 - July 31, 2021 to dispute this non-residential fraud risk, you might be owed money. And that is believed to be somewhere between $300 and $900.

The money heading to consumers comes from a $425 million consumer restitution fund, ing to Equifax, which said last week that payments have started going out. While individuals could file a claim for up to $125, the payment amount may be far less than that, ing to the settlement administrator.

However, the settlement also offers up to $20,000 in compensation to anyone who documented time and money lost recovering from identity theft as a result of the breach.

Some payments are being reported upwards of $500 per person, received digitally. A $117.5 Million Yahoo Data Breach Class Action Settlement has been settled.

Start at ftc.gov/Equifax. There, you can use a tool to find out if your information ? like your Social Security number (SSN) ? was exposed in the breach, learn about benefits, and start your claim to get free credit monitoring and maybe even cash.

Cash reimbursement requests for payment (to repay money you lost, or pay for time you spent recovering from the data breach) that were submitted before the deadline of January 22, 2022, are scheduled to be sent starting in mid-December 2022.
