What happened
Cross Recruiting Inc., which does business as Cross Resource Group, has reported a data security incident to the Massachusetts Attorney General. According to the company, an employee inadvertently disclosed personal information to an unauthorized recipient. Cross Resource Group discovered the incident on May 19, 2026, and its IT department contained it and engaged outside cybersecurity experts to investigate.
The company states that it immediately requested deletion or destruction of the disclosed data and says it confirmed the information was not further shared or used. Cross Resource Group mailed notice letters to affected individuals on June 18, 2026, and filed with the Massachusetts Attorney General on June 26, 2026. The Massachusetts filing lists 3 state residents as affected, and the total number of individuals affected nationwide has not been publicly disclosed. The notice does not mention any complimentary credit monitoring.
The information reported to be involved may include names, addresses, Social Security numbers, certain payroll information, and employee tax information. Because Social Security numbers and tax details can be used to commit identity theft and file fraudulent tax returns, affected individuals may wish to monitor their financial accounts, credit reports, and tax records closely.
What to do if you received a letter
Keep your notice letter
Do not discard it. Your notice documents what happened and is important evidence if you decide to participate in a lawsuit.
Place a fraud alert or credit freeze
The notice does not offer complimentary credit monitoring. Because Social Security numbers and tax information may be involved, consider placing a free fraud alert or security freeze with all three credit bureaus. Taking these steps does not waive your right to pursue legal action.
Place a fraud alert or credit freeze
Contact Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion to place a fraud alert or freeze on your file. Request a free weekly credit report from AnnualCreditReport.com, and use the FTC's IdentityTheft.gov recovery guide. Because tax information may be involved, also watch for IRS notices about returns you did not file, and consider requesting an IRS Identity Protection PIN.

Common questions
I received a data breach letter from Cross Resource Group. What should I do? +
Keep your notice letter, since it documents the incident and is useful evidence if you decide to pursue a claim. Because Social Security numbers and tax information may be involved, consider placing a free fraud alert or security freeze with the three credit bureaus, monitoring your financial accounts and credit reports, and watching for signs of tax-related identity theft. You can also report identity theft to the FTC at IdentityTheft.gov. A data breach attorney can review your notice at no cost.
Am I eligible to join a class action against Cross Resource Group? +
If you received a breach notice from Cross Resource Group, or your personal information was held by the company as a current or former employee or job applicant, you may qualify. Eligibility depends on your state of residence, the categories of data exposed, and any losses you experience. A free consultation can help confirm whether you have a claim.
How much money could I receive from a class action lawsuit? +
Data breach class action recoveries vary significantly. Settlements typically range from a few hundred dollars for basic out-of-pocket losses to several thousand dollars for documented identity theft, with class size, damages, and negotiation all affecting the final amount. No payout is guaranteed, and this investigation has not yet resulted in a settlement.
