Larry Alan Burns Case 3:21-md-02992-GPC-MSB Document 350-66 Filed 10/24/24 PageID.11456 Page 2 of 6 PLAINTIFF’S OBJECTIONS AND RESPONSES TO BANA’S FIRST SET OF INTERROGATORIES Case No. 3:21-md-02992-LAB-MSB 12 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 INTERROGATORY NO. 7: State the principal facts RELATING TO whether YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION was compromised, including whether YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION, wallet, CARD, or cellphone were ever stolen, and whether YOU were notified by a THIRD PARTY (e.g. government agency, employer, merchant, website) that YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION may have been compromised. RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO. 7: Plaintiff incorporates by reference the Preliminary Statement and General Objections. Plaintiff objects to this Interrogatory as vague and ambiguous to the extent it asks “whether YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION was compromised” and on the ground that it is overbroad, not proportional to the needs of this case, and ambiguous as to the included time period. Plaintiff further objects to this Interrogatory on the ground that it requests information regarding cell phones, wallets and notifications by a THIRD PARTY about potential compromises of Plaintiff’s PERSONAL INFORMATION that is unrelated to the claims made by Plaintiff and it is therefore overbroad and not proportional to the needs of this case. Plaintiff further objects to this Interrogatory as compound and counting as multiple distinct interrogatories. Subject to and without waiving the foregoing objections, Plaintiff responds as follows: Plaintiff’s personal information was obtained without authorization with respect to the transaction at issue. Plaintiff received an EDD Debit Card with a magnetic stripe (but no EMV chip) to access benefits. Through the course of his relationship with Bank of America Plaintiff suffered at least one unauthorized transaction on Plaintiff’s account. Each unauthorized transaction was timely reported to Bank of America. Case 3:21-md-02992-GPC-MSB Document 350-66 Filed 10/24/24 PageID.11457 Page 3 of 6 PLAINTIFF’S OBJECTIONS AND RESPONSES TO BANA’S FIRST SET OF INTERROGATORIES Case No. 3:21-md-02992-LAB-MSB 13 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 In July of 2020, Plaintiff began collecting benefits of approximately $934.00 every two weeks. In September of 2020, Plaintiff’s account had approximately $1,892.00 in unauthorized transactions. Plaintiff discovered the unauthorized transactions when Bank of America sent her a monthly paper copy of her bank statement as per her request. As soon as Plaintiff saw the statement, she called Bank of America. Plaintiff reported to Bank of America that there were a series of transaction she did not authorize, including hotel room purchases and other goods and services. Bank of America informed Plaintiff that she would be given provisional credit and a new card. The new card arrived shortly after. On November 19, 2020, Bank of America reimbursed Plaintiff’s account with $611.00. On November 24, 2020, Bank of America reimbursed Plaintiff’s account with $323.58. On December 10, 2020, Plaintiff noticed another unauthorized transaction of $80.00 on her account and called Bank of America to report it as fraud. On December 11, 2020, Bank of America sent Plaintiff a letter stating that a claim for $1,181.00 was closed because they believed there was suspicious activity on the account. INTERROGATORY NO. 8: State the principal facts RELATED TO all YOUR CLAIMS, including the date of the CLAIM, the manner in which the CLAIM was submitted or communicated to BANA, IDENTIFYING all TRANSACTIONS included in the CLAIM, the interest YOU believe YOU are entitled to and the basis for that belief, IDENTIFYING the PERSON YOU believe made the transaction, whether YOU knew a TRANSACTION subject to a CLAIM was authorized by YOU or by someone with authority to use YOUR CARD or ACCOUNT, and the information provided to BANA about the disputed TRANSACTION (including but not limited to any DOCUMENTS or COMMUNICATIONS provided to BANA).

Plaintiff objects to this Request as overbroad and unduly burdensome to the extent “all DOCUMENTS” seeks documents that are neither relevant to any claim or defense in this action, nor proportional to the needs of this case. Plaintiff also objects to this request as unduly burdensome to the extent that it seeks information that is not in Plaintiff’s possession, custody or control, is public, in the possession of third parties, or is more readily accessible to or already in the possession of Defendant. Subject to and without waiving the foregoing objections, Plaintiff will produce non-privileged, responsive documents in Plaintiff’s possession, custody, or control that are located after a reasonable search, to the extent such documents exist. Discovery and investigation are ongoing and Plaintiff reserves the right to supplement Plaintiff’s production. Dated: January 9, 2024 SWIGART LAW GROUP, APC By: /s/ Joshua B. Swigart JOSHUA B.
