Gamestop data breach settlement
Gamestop settled a data breach claim that paid up to $10,000 per person. The claim window closed on December 13, 2018, so this one can no longer be claimed — but new settlements open all the time, and some are paying out right now. The free check tells you in seconds whether your email is in a breach that still pays.

Who was covered
Class Members include those “who used a credit, debit or other payment card to make (or attempt to make) a purchase on www.gamestop.com between August 10, 2016 and February 9, 2017.”
Where to claim
The administrator’s site is www.BraySecurityBreachSettlement.com. The window is closed, so it is there for the record, not to file.

Being in the breach is not the same as being in the class. Class membership usually turns on having received the company’s own notice letter, and only the settlement administrator can confirm it. We are not lawyers, we take no fee from any claim, and we never file on anyone’s behalf.
