Claim Your Share of $725 Million Settlement Now: Facebook Forced to Pay Out for Privacy Violations

If you had an active Facebook account in the U.S. between May 2007 and December 2022, you have until August 25 to claim your part of a $725 million settlement.

This comes as a result of Facebook’s privacy violations during the Cambridge Analytica scandal.

Meta, Facebook’s parent company has had to pay billions due to the scandal. This includes $5 billion to the Federal Trade Commission and $100 million to the SEC.

Now, according to the class action lawsuit which was signed in December of 2022, the company will be paying out $725 million to those who qualify.

Qualifying Facebook users can make a claim at Facebookuserprivacysettlement.com. This isn’t Facebook admitting they did anything wrong, they just have to pay up.
