Following a data breach that may have affected 143 million people, a class action lawsuit has been filed against credit-reporting agency Equifax, the ABA Journal reports. Mary McHill of Portland, Oregon, and Brook Reinhard of Eugene, Oregon, filed the suit in federal court yesterday. The breach exposed names, Social Security numbers, birth dates, driver’s license data and addresses. 209,000 people also had their credit card numbers hacked.
