Ticketmaster Hit with Data Breach Lawsuit

A new class action lawsuit has been filed against Ticketmaster and its parent company, Live Nation, accusing them of failing to adequately protect personal data during a recent breach. Plaintiffs Shannon Spencer, Gerry Mcauley, and Ryan Jossart claim that the companies neglected to implement sufficient cybersecurity measures, leading to unauthorized access to hundreds of millions of individuals’ personally identifiable information (PII).

The lawsuit alleges that Ticketmaster and Live Nation’s negligence, willful disregard, and inadequate security protocols resulted in the breach, exposing consumers to significant risks of fraud and identity theft. The plaintiffs assert that this breach has placed them and others at a heightened and imminent risk, requiring them to closely monitor their financial accounts to prevent potential identity theft.

The plaintiffs seek to represent a nationwide class of individuals whose data was compromised, arguing that Ticketmaster and Live Nation’s actions were in violation of negligence laws, unjust enrichment principles, and California’s Unfair Competition Law. They are demanding a jury trial, along with various forms of damages including actual, nominal, statutory, consequential, and punitive.

The lawsuit also notes that the group ShinyHunters, allegedly responsible for the breach, attempted to extort Ticketmaster and Live Nation before putting the stolen data up for sale. The plaintiffs are requesting declaratory and injunctive relief to address the data breach’s repercussions and to compel the companies to improve their data security practices.
