Eureka Casino Hotel Data Breach Settlement 2026 – File by May 11
Eureka Casino Hotel got hit with a data breach in November 2022 — and the house did not win. Hackers walked off with Social Security numbers, financial account details, passport numbers, and more belonging to guests and employees. If your information was in the mix, a $1 million class action settlement means you may be eligible for up to $5,000 in reimbursement, plus a pro rata cash payment from the remaining fund just for filing a valid claim.
What happened
Class period: November 9, 2022 through November 13, 2022
Between November 9 and 13, 2022, hackers accessed the computer network of Rancho Mesquite Casino, Inc. — operating as Eureka Casino Hotel in Nevada — and copied sensitive personal information belonging to guests and employees.
The exposed data included full names, Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, passport numbers, and driver's license or state-issued ID numbers. In short, the full house of personally identifiable information.
Eureka disagrees with Plaintiffs' claims and denies any wrongdoing, but both sides agreed a $1 million class action settlement was better than continued litigation. The court did not rule in favor of either side.
