Seufert Construction & Supply Co Inc was the subject of a data breach notification filed with the IN Attorney General. The AG filing was recorded on August 18, 2026. The breach or discovery date reported in the filing is July 13, 2026.
From the AG filing description
Seufert Construction & Supply Co Inc operates as an established provider in the regional construction, building materials, and contractor services sector. Beyond managing physical job sites and heavy supply logistics, companies of this industrial scale function as complex corporate entities requiring extensive administrative, financial, and human resources infrastructure. To successfully operate, Seufert Construction & Supply Co Inc collects, processes, and stores a substantial volume of sensitive personal and financial data. This information typically includes comprehensive employee records, subcontractor tax documentation, payroll details, direct deposit banking information, and proprietary vendor contracts necessary for day-to-day business operations and regulatory compliance. In 2026, Seufert Construction & Supply Co Inc formally reported a significant data security incident to the Indiana Attorney General. While the precise mechanics of the breach continue to be scrutinized, security incidents affecting mid-to-large-scale construction and supply enterprises frequently involve sophisticated cyber threats such as targeted ransomware deployments, unauthorized intrusion into corporate server networks, or vulnerabilities within third-party vendor management systems. Because companies in this sector often maintain interconnected networks spanning multiple remote job sites, regional offices, and supply chain partners, an intrusion can quickly compromise centralized databases holding deeply sensitive administrative and personnel records. The data compromised in the Seufert Construction & Supply Co Inc security incident exposes affected individuals to severe, long-term risks. Depending on the scope of the breach, exposed information likely includes full names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, wage and compensation records, tax return documents, and banking details utilized for payroll and direct deposit. The exposure of Social Security numbers and tax records creates an immediate danger of identity theft and fraudulent tax filings, where bad actors can intercept tax refunds or open unauthorized lines of credit. Furthermore, leaked banking and compensation data puts victims at risk of direct financial account takeover and targeted phishing scams designed to drain personal assets. As a commercial entity entrusted with sensitive personnel and financial records, Seufert Construction & Supply Co Inc had a legal duty to implement robust administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect this information from unauthorized access. Under the Indiana Disclosure of Security Breach Law, as well as general common law negligence principles and Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, businesses are required to maintain reasonable security measures commensurate with the sensitivity of the data they hold. The occurrence of a widespread data breach strongly suggests that critical security protocols—such as multi-factor authentication, network segmentation, regular vulnerability assessments, and employee cybersecurity training—may have been neglected or improperly executed, representing a direct failure of the company's legal obligations. Receiving a data breach notification letter from Seufert Construction & Supply Co Inc serves as official legal acknowledgment that your private information was compromised due to corporate negligence. This notification establishes the legal standing necessary to participate in a class action lawsuit aimed at holding the company accountable for failing to safeguard your data. Importantly, victims do not need to prove that they have already suffered actual financial loss or identity theft to seek legal redress; the increased, imminent risk of future harm is sufficient under the law. Our firm evaluates and litigates these data breach cases on a strict contingency fee basis, meaning you pay absolutely nothing out of pocket, and we only collect a fee if we successfully recover compensation on your behalf.
Under the Indiana data breach notification law, you may have a legal claim against Seufert Construction & Supply Co Inc if any of the following apply:
Based on the data types reported in this filing:
Your SSN is the master key to your identity. Once exposed, criminals can open new lines of credit, take out loans, or file taxes in your name.
Combined with a name and other leaked data, date of birth helps criminals pass identity verification questions at banks and government agencies.
Phone numbers exposed in breaches are used for SIM swapping attacks — hijacking your number to bypass two-factor authentication on financial accounts.
Common categories of compensation in data breach class actions
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.
Professional credit monitoring services cost $10–$40 per month. Identity theft restoration services, if needed, can cost hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars. Courts have awarded these costs as direct damages in SSN breach cases.
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.
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.
Note: an attorney general breach filing does not by itself establish a settlement fund, a payment amount, or a claim deadline. If an official settlement notice is later issued, rely on that notice for payment details and deadlines.
No. Under Indiana 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.
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.
Immediately place a free credit freeze at all three bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion). A freeze blocks new accounts from being opened in your name. Then file a complaint with the FTC at IdentityTheft.gov and contact our office — SSN exposure is one of the most serious breach types.
Banks may reverse fraudulent charges, but they are not obligated to compensate you for time lost, stress, or indirect damages. A class action claim against the breached company can recover those additional categories of harm.
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.
Accepting free credit monitoring from Seufert Construction & Supply Co Inc 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.
Not necessarily. Many data breach victims are never notified directly. If your personal information was held by Seufert Construction & Supply Co Inc during the relevant period, you may still qualify even without receiving a letter. A free eligibility review can confirm your status.
