Common questions

What is the claim deadline for the OBI Seafoods Data Incident Settlement?
This settlement is closed to new claims — the deadline was August 20, 2026. Once a claim deadline passes you generally forfeit your share, even if you qualified.
Is the OBI Seafoods Data Incident Settlement notice real, or a scam?
Claims are filed at obiseafoodsdatasettlement.com. Filing a class action claim is always free — no legitimate settlement charges you to claim, and no administrator will ask for payment, a gift card, or your full Social Security number by email or text. If a notice asks for any of those, it is not from the administrator. When in doubt, ignore the link you were sent and go to the official settlement website directly.
When will payments from the OBI Seafoods Data Incident Settlement be sent?
Class action payouts typically take 12 to 24 months after the claim deadline, and longer if the settlement is appealed. The final approval hearing for this case is set for September 4, 2026; no payments can be issued before a settlement receives final approval.
