Uni-Select has begun notifying individuals in Maryland that their personal information may have been compromised in a recently discovered data security incident. These notifications, issued around March 18, 2025, advise recipients that an unauthorized party gained access to their systems.

While the specific details of the breach are still under investigation and not fully disclosed, the critical takeaway for recipients is that their personal data is now potentially exposed. This means that information Uni-Select held could be in the hands of bad actors.

When personal information is compromised, individuals face increased risks of various forms of identity theft, fraud, and unsolicited communications. Monitoring financial accounts and personal records becomes a necessary precaution to detect any misuse.

If you received a notification from Uni-Select, it's wise to review the letter carefully for any advice they offer. Consider placing fraud alerts on your credit files and regularly checking your statements for suspicious activity. Updating passwords on important online accounts is also a prudent step.

Dealing with a data breach can be complex, and understanding your legal rights is important. Our team is actively investigating the Uni-Select data breach to help affected individuals understand their options and pursue potential claims.

We offer free, no-obligation case reviews for those impacted by this incident. If you received a data breach notification letter, speaking with an experienced legal professional can help clarify your situation and guide your next steps.

What to do if you were affected

These general steps can help limit the risk of identity theft and fraud after any data breach.

  • Stay alert to targeted scams

    Be cautious of calls, texts, or emails that reference this breach. Legitimate organizations won't ask you to confirm sensitive details through an unsolicited message.

  • Keep your notification letter

    Save the notice you received. It documents that your information was involved and is often needed to enroll in any credit monitoring offered or to join a related legal claim.

Uni-Select data breach lawyer, lawsuit and letter questions

Do I need a Uni-Select data breach lawyer or attorney?
You don't need to pay to find out. Our data breach attorneys review notices like this one for free, and data breach cases are usually handled on contingency — no fee unless money is recovered for you.
Can I sue Uni-Select over the data breach?
It depends on what was exposed, the law in MD and your own state, and whether you've been harmed. Most people take part through a class action rather than suing alone. Keep your notification letter — it's the proof that connects you to the breach.
Is there a Uni-Select data breach class action lawsuit?
Law firms often open an investigation after a breach notice like this one, and a class action lawsuit may follow. This page doesn't confirm that a lawsuit has been filed against Uni-Select. You usually don't have to join a class action to be included — if a settlement is reached, class members are notified and can file a claim.
Is the Uni-Select data breach letter legit or a scam?
A notice from Uni-Select in the mail matches the breach Uni-Select reported to the MD Attorney General on March 18, 2025. Check that the company name and dates in your letter match that filing. A real notice of data security incident won't ask for your password, Social Security number or a payment — if it does, contact Uni-Select through a phone number or website you find yourself.
Did Uni-Select offer free credit monitoring?
Any free monitoring Uni-Select is offering will be described in the notice you received, along with an activation code and a sign-up deadline. Using the free service won't stop you from joining a lawsuit or settlement later.
How much could a Uni-Select data breach settlement or claim be worth?
There is no set amount, and no Uni-Select settlement is confirmed here. In past data breach settlements, payments depended on what data was exposed and on documented losses — fraud, out-of-pocket costs and time spent dealing with the breach. Keep receipts and records; they're what damages claims are built on.
Where can I see the official Uni-Select breach notice?
Uni-Select's report is published by the MD Attorney General: https://oag.maryland.gov/resources-info/Pages/security-breach-notices.aspx#ITU-376565 Compare it with the letter you received to confirm the dates and details match.
What should I do after getting the Uni-Select 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.
