Chimicles Schwartz Kriner & Donaldson-Smith LLP (CSK&D) Files Class Action Complaint Against Stein Mart, Related to Data Breach

CSK&D has filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against Stein Mart and a company that facilitates consumers’ purchases on its website, Annex Cloud, following Stein Mart’s announcement that the personal information—including credit/debit card numbers, expiration dates, and security codes (“CVV”)—of customers who made online purchases on its website between December 28, 2017 and July 9, 2018, have been accessed by unauthorized users as part of a widespread data breach. Other online retailers—including Francesca’s,  Title Nine, DiscountMugs.com, and SHEIN—have also been linked to the breach of Annex’s systems, and customers who have recently made purchases on these retailers’ websites may also have fallen victim to the breach.
