$68M Settlement in LifeLock Consumer Fraud Class Action Lawsuit Approved

This is a settlement for the LifeLock lawsuit.

- by

Santa Clara, CA: Final approval has been granted to the $68 million settlement of a consumer fraud class action lawsuit pending against LifeLock Inc. The lawsuit alleged that LifeLock made false statements about its services and failed to follow through on promised that it would alert consumers of potential identify theft immediately.

U.S. District Judge Haywood Gilliam Jr. also approved attorneys' fees of $10.2 million and a payment of $2,000 to each of four class representatives. Distribution of the remaining funds works out to $20 per class member, with members of a subclass receiving funds on a pro rata distribution of a cordoned off subclass fund. The class starts from September 2010 and the subclass period begins in January 2012.

In July, 2015 the FTC accused LifeLock of “failing to establish and maintain a comprehensive information security program to protect its users’ sensitive personal data, including credit card, social security, and bank account numbers [and of] falsely advertising that it protected consumers’ sensitive data with the same high-level safeguards as financial institutions.”

The case is Ebarle et al. v. LifeLock Inc., case number 3:15-cv-00258, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
