On November 13, 2024, LittleStar identified suspicious activity associated with its email environment, implemented its incident response protocols and ensured all email accounts were secure. Independent computer forensic experts were engaged to assist with an investigation. The investigation found that there was unauthorized access to a limited number of email accounts.

Letters will be mailed to individuals for whom LittleStar has addresses, which will contain more information about the incident as well as instructions for enrolling in credit monitoring and identity protection services if appropriate.
What You Can Do:
Individuals should be vigilant for the next 12 to 24 months and review credit reports, bank account and other financial statements, and immediately contact their financial institution if they identify suspicious activity. Individuals should also monitor their estimate of benefits (or EOB) for suspicious medical activity as well.
