Hunter Associates data breach questions

Is the Hunter Associates data breach letter legit or a scam?
A notice from Hunter Associates in the mail matches the breach Hunter Associates reported to the Indiana Attorney General on June 15, 2026.

A real notice of data security incident won't ask for your password, Social Security number or a payment — if it does, contact Hunter Associates through a phone number or website you find yourself.
Did Hunter Associates offer free credit monitoring?
Check your letter from Hunter Associates. If free credit or identity monitoring is offered, the enrollment code and deadline are printed in the notice itself. Enrolling does not give up your right to bring a claim.
Is there a Hunter Associates data breach class action lawsuit?

What should I do after getting the Hunter Associates data breach notice?
Keep the letter and the envelope, and note the date it arrived. Freeze your credit with Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, change any passwords the notice mentions, and sign up for any free credit monitoring the letter offers. Then check whether you may have a claim.

How much could a Hunter Associates data breach settlement or claim be worth?
