Have you heard about it, what have you heard? This popped up as an ad on Youtube. The class action suit has to do with anti-trust activities by Valve/Steam. The claim is individuals who participate in this lawsuit could (or not) receive $100s-1000s. I'm not sure what to think would like to hear what you think.
In the back of my mind, I'll participate and Steam will lock my account. :oops:
Thoughts?

It looks like a fishing expedition by the law firm and if you go by history, then you may get a 10 dollar credit. Only the lawyers make out

I "tested" this out by using an email address I only use as a spam catch-all, and I started getting multiple emails a day from them for not finishing the process. Wound up blocking them entirely, because there was no working opt-out mechanism from their emails.

That's fake buddy. There's no lawsuit. If there was, IGN, PCGamer, Gamespot, and all the other major publications would've picked up on it.

I pray you did not give any information

I've been seeing those and glad I had someone else to test this out 🤣
