F21 OpCo LLC d/b/a Forever 21 Data Security Incident
Maxey Law Firm is investigating F21 OpCo LLC d/b/a Forever 21 (“Forever 21”), which recently sent notice of a data security incident to impacted individuals. The data security incident arose when an unauthorized third party accessed certain Forever 21 systems at various times between January 5, 2023 and March 21, 2023 and obtained select files from certain Forever 21 systems.
Forever 21 reported that the data breach affected 539,207 individuals.
For each of these 539,207 individuals, the information involved may have included their name, Social Security number, date of birth, bank account number (without access code or pin), and information regarding their Forever21 health plan, including enrollment and premiums paid.
The notice does not state whether or not the Social Security numbers and other sensitive information were encrypted and, if not, why they were not encrypted.
