Diplomatic Duty Free Shops of New York
International Shoppes Data Breach Settlement
U.S. residents whose information was compromised in the International Shoppes incident may qualify for an estimated $50 alternative cash payment. Claims are due November 11, 2026. The payment may be reduced depending on claims.
Key facts
The lawsuit alleges that a cyberattack exposed private information held by International Shoppes and Diplomatic Duty Free Shops of New York. The court has not decided which side is right.
Who may qualify?
U.S. residents whose personal information was compromised in the incident discovered in December 2023 may qualify, including people who received notice, subject to the settlement exclusions.
What could you receive?
The administrator expects a $50 alternative cash payment, which may be smaller depending on claims. You can instead seek up to $4,000 for qualifying documented losses. Two years of credit monitoring can also be requested. Benefits are subject to a $500,000 aggregate cap.
What information is needed?
The alternative cash option does not require loss receipts. Online filing asks for the Login ID and PIN from your notice. Documented-loss claims require supporting records.
What dates matter?
Claims must be submitted online or postmarked by November 11, 2026. The exclusion deadline was October 12, 2026. A final approval hearing is scheduled for November 16, 2026. Payment depends on final approval and any appeals being resolved.
Who may qualify
U.S. residents whose personal information was compromised in the incident discovered in December 2023 at International Shoppes and Diplomatic Duty Free Shops of New York may qualify, including notice recipients, subject to the settlement exclusions.
What proof do you need?
Did this settlement need proof of purchase?
For this settlement, you needed proof for some claims but not others. The alternative cash option does not require loss receipts. Online filing asks for the Login ID and PIN from your notice. Reimbursement requires supporting records of qualifying losses. The claim window for this settlement has closed.
Where do these requirements come from?
From the official settlement notice - the document that sets out who qualifies and what they have to provide. Claim summarizes it; Claim does not set it. Where the notice and this page disagree, the notice is the one that counts.
How can I check a settlement email or text?
Who is the administrator?
Simpluris is the settlement administrator: the company a court appoints to run the claims process, send notices and make payments. It is not the company being sued, and it is not Claim.
Is the sender's name enough to trust the message?
No. A sender name, a display name, a reply-to address and even a case number can all be copied. Check the case name and number in the message against the ones on this page, and reach the court-authorized settlement website yourself rather than through a link or button in the message.
What warning signs should I look for?
Any request for a fee, a payment or a wire to release settlement money. Any request for full banking login details. Pressure to act straight away. A web address that does not match the one in the official notice. Genuine notices identify the case by name and number and explain how payment is made.
