"Trader Joe's is paying out $7.4 million to customers who used credit or debit cards between March 5, 2019, and July 19, 2019, after a class action lawsuit claimed the grocery chain violated federal law."
"The issue? Receipts at some stores printed the first six and last four digits of customers' cards, increasing the risk of identity theft."
"Under federal law, you don't need to prove identity theft happened to claim a payout - printing too many card digits is the violation itself."
"If you're eligible, you could get an estimated $102.45 per person. Claims must be submitted by June 6, 2026, through the settlement website."
