A new class action lawsuit alleges that Ticketmaster and its parent company, Live Nation, failed to properly secure and safeguard the personally identifiable information (PII) of hundreds of millions of individuals during a recent data breach.ย
Plaintiffs Shannon Spencer, Gerry Mcauley and Ryan Jossartโs class action lawsuit claims the Ticketmaster data breach directly resulted from the companyโs failure to implement โadequate and reasonable cyber-security procedures and protocols.โย
โDefendants disregarded the rights of Plaintiffs and Class Members by, among other things, intentionally, willfully, recklessly, or negligently failing to take adequate and reasonable measures to ensure its data systems were protected against unauthorized intrusions,โ the Ticketmaster class action says.ย
Spencer, Mcauley and Jossart want to represent a nationwide class of individuals whose PII was accessed and/or acquired by an unauthorized party due to the data breach.ย

โPlaintiffs and Class Members must now and in the future closely monitor their financial accounts to guard against identity theft,โ the Ticketmaster class action says.ย
Spencer, Mcauley and Jossart claim Ticketmaster and Live Nation are guilty of negligence and negligence per se, unjust enrichment and breach of implied contract, and violating Californiaโs Unfair Competition Law.ย ย
