The M&D Capital data breach settlement received preliminary approval on October 8, 2025 and covers any individual whose personal information was potentially compromised during the data breach discovered on or about July 8, 2023.
The court-approved settlement website can be found at MDDataSettlement.com.
Per settlement documents, settlement class members who submit a timely, valid claim form are eligible to choose between two forms of cash payment.
Cash payment A provides up to $5,000 for documented expenses incurred because of the data breach. To receive cash payment A, class members must submit a timely, valid claim and reasonable documentation supporting the losses. The settlement agreement provides a non-exhaustive list of acceptable documentation, including phone records, email correspondence and receipts.
Instead of selecting cash payment A, class members may choose to receive cash payment B, a flat cash payment estimated to be $75.
The settlement agreement specifies that if the number of valid claims exceeds or fails to exhaust the amount of money remaining in the settlement fund, payments will be reduced or increased pro rata (i.e., in equal shares).
In addition to cash payments, the settlement agreement also offers two years of CyEx medical monitoring for class members who submit a timely, valid claim form. The medical monitoring includes one-bureau credit monitoring, dark web scanning, security-freezing assistance, victim assistance, $1,000,000 in medical identity theft insurance with no deductible, and access to fraud resolution agents.
To submit a claim form, class members should visit this page on the settlement website and enter their unique ID and PIN found on their copy of the settlement notice. Settlement class members who prefer to submit their claim by mail can download the claim form from this page and mail it to the address listed on the form.
All claim forms must be submitted online or postmarked by January 27, 2026.
