Was this a ransomware attack?

The filing does not say ransomware was involved. We do not label an incident ransomware unless the company’s report says so. Whatever the cause, the steps to protect yourself and the legal question are the same.

What we know

RCI Internet Services appears to be a telecommunications and technology company providing residential and commercial internet connectivity. As an internet service provider, the company typically collects and maintains sensitive customer information, including full names, physical service addresses, billing records, and payment account details required to manage user accounts. In 2026, RCI Internet Services officially reported a data security incident to the Texas Attorney General. If you have received a formal data breach notification letter, it indicates that your personal information was stored within the company's systems at the time of the unauthorized access. This notice is intended to inform you of the incident and provide guidance on the protective measures you should take to secure your digital identity.

After the RCI Internet Services incident: what to do and your options

What should I do after getting the RCI Internet Services data breach notice?
Keep the letter and the envelope, and note the date it arrived. Freeze your credit with Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, change any passwords the notice mentions, and sign up for any free credit monitoring the letter offers. Then check whether you may have a claim.
Did RCI Internet Services offer free credit monitoring?
Check your letter from RCI Internet Services. If free credit or identity monitoring is offered, the enrollment code and deadline are printed in the notice itself. Signing up doesn't waive any legal rights you may have.
Can I sue RCI Internet Services over the data breach?
It depends on what was exposed, the law in Texas and your own state, and whether you've been harmed. Most people take part through a class action rather than suing alone. Keep your notification letter — it's the proof that connects you to the breach.
Do I need a RCI Internet Services data breach lawyer or attorney?
Whether the company's systems were encrypted by ransomware or data was simply taken, the legal question is the same: did it protect your information the way the law requires? An attorney can review your notice for free, and these cases are usually handled on contingency.
Is there a RCI Internet Services data breach class action lawsuit?
Law firms often open an investigation after a breach notice like this one, and a class action lawsuit may follow. This page doesn't confirm that a lawsuit has been filed against RCI Internet Services. You usually don't have to join a class action to be included — if a settlement is reached, class members are notified and can file a claim.
Is the RCI Internet Services data breach letter legit or a scam?
A notice from RCI Internet Services in the mail matches the breach RCI Internet Services reported to the Texas Attorney General on June 1, 2026. Check that the company name and dates in your letter match that filing. A real notice of data security incident won't ask for your password, Social Security number or a payment — if it does, contact RCI Internet Services through a phone number or website you find yourself.
How much could a RCI Internet Services data breach settlement or claim be worth?
There is no set amount, and no RCI Internet Services settlement is confirmed here. In past data breach settlements, payments depended on what data was exposed and on documented losses — fraud, out-of-pocket costs and time spent dealing with the breach. Keep receipts and records; they're what damages claims are built on.
