Oglethorpe, Inc., based in Tampa, Florida, suffered a data breach in May 2025 where cybercriminals stole highly sensitive personal information of individuals. The compromised data includes names, dates of birth, driver’s license numbers, Social Security numbers, and medical records. The breach has led to concerns that the stolen data is being sold on the dark web, exposing victims to potential identity theft, financial fraud, and other malicious activities. Affected individuals have reportedly received breach notifications, and a national consumer rights law firm, Wolf Haldenstein Adler Freeman & Herz LLP, is investigating claims on behalf of victims. The incident highlights a severe failure in data protection, risking long-term harm to individuals whose personal and medical details were exposed.
