Trader Joe’s settlement: How to know if you’re eligible for $102 payout
Summary
Trader Joe’s has agreed to a $7.4 million settlement to resolve a class-action lawsuit alleging that receipts printed excessive credit and debit card details between March 5 and July 19, 2019, potentially exposing customers to identity theft. While some customers have already received notices with claim identification numbers, those who didn’t can still file a claim by providing the dates of improperly printed receipts showing the first six and last four digits of their payment card. The estimated payout is $102.45 per person, dependent on the number of valid claims received. Customers must submit their claims before June 9th through the settlement website, phone number, or mail-in documentation. Payments are anticipated to be distributed in September.
