About This Security Incident

Informa Canada Inc. dba Shop FAN EXPO was responsible for safeguarding the personal data of its customers and employees. According to a NH state filing, Informa Canada Inc. dba Shop FAN EXPO experienced a data security incident affecting an undisclosed number of individuals, exposing financial account information and payment data. This breach was recently disclosed and the window for legal action is open now.

Retail data breaches typically involve large volumes of payment card information and customer contact records. Stolen card data is sold on dark web markets and monetized quickly — often within 24 to 72 hours of a breach. If Informa Canada Inc. dba Shop FAN EXPO stored your payment information, the risk of unauthorized transactions is immediate and concrete.

Exposed Data — What's at Risk

This filing does not specify data types. Based on Informa Canada Inc. dba Shop FAN EXPO's industry:

Payment Card Fraudhigh risk

Stolen card numbers are sold on dark web markets within hours of a breach and can be used for online purchases or cloned physical cards.

Targeted Phishingmedium risk

Your email being connected to this breach makes you a high-value phishing target. Watch for impersonation attempts referencing the company or the breach.

Physical Security Riskmedium risk

Home address exposure can enable mail theft, package fraud, and targeted phishing attacks that reference your known location.

Identity Verification Bypassmedium risk

Combined with a name and other leaked data, date of birth helps criminals pass identity verification questions at banks and government agencies.

Your Legal Rights

Common categories of compensation in data breach class actions

Time & Inconvenience

Courts recognize that the time spent monitoring accounts, placing credit freezes, and dealing with the aftermath of a breach has real economic value. This category of damages is recoverable even without direct financial loss.

Financial Losses & Fraudulent Charges

Direct financial losses resulting from the breach — unauthorized charges, fraudulent transfers, or fees incurred through fraud — are recoverable as compensatory damages. Banks may reverse some charges; a class action recovers the remainder and associated costs.

Emotional Distress

Data breach victims regularly report anxiety, loss of sleep, and ongoing fear of identity theft. These non-economic harms are cognizable injuries in data breach litigation, particularly in cases involving SSN or medical record exposure.

Applicable State Law

This breach was reported under the New Hampshire data breach notification law, which mandates notification and establishes your right to seek damages.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need proof that my data was misused to file a claim against Informa Canada Inc. dba Shop FAN EXPO?

No. Under New Hampshire data breach notification law and federal law, the unauthorized exposure of your personal data — regardless of whether it has been actively misused — can be sufficient grounds for a claim. The breach itself is the injury.

How much does filing a claim cost?

Nothing. The Law Office of David S. Harris handles data breach cases on contingency — you pay zero upfront and owe nothing unless compensation is recovered.

Is there a deadline to file a claim?

State statutes of limitations for data breach claims typically run 2–4 years from the date of the breach or its discovery. Because this breach was recently disclosed, the window is open — but acting early preserves your options and strengthens the case.

What if Informa Canada Inc. dba Shop FAN EXPO offered me free credit monitoring after the breach?

Accepting free credit monitoring from Informa Canada Inc. dba Shop FAN EXPO does not waive your right to pursue legal action unless you signed a specific release waiving claims. In most cases, victims who accepted monitoring can still file.

Do I need to have received a notice letter to be eligible?

Not necessarily. Many data breach victims are never notified directly. If your personal information was held by Informa Canada Inc. dba Shop FAN EXPO during the relevant period, you may still qualify even without receiving a letter. A free eligibility review can confirm your status.

How long does a data breach class action lawsuit take?

Most data breach class actions resolve within 18 to 36 months, though timelines vary by court and complexity. Your participation requires minimal effort — typically completing a claim form. Our office handles all litigation; you are notified when a settlement is reached.
