Infinity Insurance Data Breach Shrouded in Suspicion
Infinity Insurance Data Breach Shrouded in Suspicion
Posted on behalf of Arnold Law Firm
on March 31, 2021 in Data Breach Updated on February 24, 2022
On March 16, 2021, Infinity Insurance Company (Infinity) notified an unknown number of individuals of a data security incident that occurred on December 26, 2020. The company claimed that an unauthorized party accessed files on “certain company servers in their network” over two days in late December. The notice also included an offer for one year of credit monitoring services.
Infinity has provided affected individuals with an information line: 877-316-0057. However, many people have taken to social media with complaints about the number failing to work reliably and frustrations about being unable to get useful information.
Unfortunately, Infinity’s formal notice failed to provide further details about the data breach, leaving many people confused, with growing suspicions of potential fraud. Furthermore, many individuals who received a notice have never been a customer or employee of Infinity, leading them to question the validity of the situation.
These dynamics have led to rampant online concerns of whether the Infinity data breach notices could be a phishing scam designed to expose personal details when calling about the data breach and credit monitoring service offer.
Infinity is a subsidiary of Kemper Insurance (Kemper). At this time, there is reason to believe that all Kemper entities may have been involved in the data breach, including Alliance United.
It appears that a broad range of individuals may have been affected by the cybersecurity incident, possibly including:
Past or current customers of Infinity, Alliance United, or Kemper
Past or current employees of Infinity, Alliance United, or Kemper
Customers who requested an insurance quote through a broker affiliated with Infinity, Alliance United, or Kemper
Customers who used an online insurance comparison system linked to Infinity, Alliance United, or Kemper
Individuals involved in an insurance claim involving Infinity, Alliance United, or Kemper
Individuals who purchased a car where the dealer may have purchased gap coverage from Infinity, Alliance United, or Kemper
According to individuals who claim to have received a data breach notice from Infinity, possible compromised personal information may include:
Names
Addresses
Medical leave information
Social Security numbers/EIN numbers
Workers compensation claim information
