ATTENTION TEXAS CASH APP USERS: The money moving app has to pay a big fine and they might owe you money!

As we all know nowadays, whenever someone wants to send you money one of the first questions that get asked is: What's Your Cashapp?

Well, Cash App might be asking that same question TO YOU if you hurry and make a claim if you're a current or former Cashapp user after they agreed to pay up to settle a lawsuit.

The class-action pointed to a 2021 incident, which the company disclosed in 2022, where a former employee downloaded reports of some U.S. users without permission. It also noted another breach disclosed in 2023, when an unauthorized user accessed some Cash App accounts using phone numbers that were linked to them.

They agreed to settle the litigation by paying $15 million that after attorneys fees and administration costs, that money will go to impacted customers who submit eligible claims.

You’ll have to submit a claim on the official settlement administrator’s website. The current deadline to submit a claim is Nov. 18 with the settlement’s final approval hearing slated for Dec. 16.

Those eligible include current or former Cash App customers who have been impacted by unauthorized access of their personal information or fraudulent withdrawals between Aug. 23, 2018 through Aug. 20 of this year. You may have received a personalized notice informing you about eligibility for the settlement by mail or email but if not, there’s also an option to manually provide information about your situation online.
