Hello!



I got few emails that say that the court forced Yahoo to pay users for breach of privacy.


Has anyone heard of it?


What do we need to do?



I have several Yahoo and other emails that were accessed via my Yahoo account.


Do you know what money is it?


Thanks!

    Try googling - or use Yahoo search engine.
    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!

    Do you live in the USA or Israel?
    Who's included? If you received a Notice from Yahoo about the Data Breaches, or if you had a Yahoo account at any time between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2016, and are a resident of the United States or Israel, you are a "Settlement Class Member."
