If you shopped at Trader's Joes between March 5, 2019, and July 19,2019 using their credit or debit card to pay and had a receipt with the first six and last four numbers of the card printed of it you could be a part of this lawsuit. You also had to have gotten a postcard in the mailing alerting you to this settlement. The amount is expected to be $102.45
The company is accused of violating the Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act at some stores when the location printed the first six and the last four digits of customers credit or debit card transactions. "By doing this the plaintiffs claimed they were susceptible to identity theft. Trader Joe's settled but denied wrongdoing.
I have never been to a Trader Joes store. I think it says volumes when they settle but deny wrongdoing.

The Belgium chocolates sound good. I just keep hearing of recalls from them so I feel like some products may not be safe.

@celticeagle They are delicious. I’ve heard about recalls there, too, but don’t use most of their products.

We have a new Trader Joe's; but I've never been there. It's not convenient. They should have known better than to have printed customers' numbers on the receipts.

Why should the consumer be sued for something they know nothing about?

Why would they say they don't but yet pay the money? Sounds pretty fishy to me.

People will be raking through old receipts and bank statements as we speak
Why would they settle if they did nothing wrong
I always wanted to ask Trump that question
