If you get an email with "Notice of Pending Class Action and Notice of Proposed Settlement," it could mean you're eligible for $10 from Facebook, according to Gizmodo.

As part of a recent class action settlement, Facebook might distribute $20 million among users who were used in advertisements without consentBuzz Feed reports

Eligible Facebook users need to fill out a claim form, but the settlement also stipultes "if the number of claims made renders it economically infeasible to pay money to persons who make a timely and valid claim, payment will be made to the not-for-profit organizations identified on the Settlement website at www.fraleyfacebooksettlement.com."

In other words, if too many people ask for their money, no one's getting any.

"..In other words, if too many people ask for their money, no one's getting any. "

Bingo.

Facebook is a cesspool of potential lawsuits, from hosting child pornographers to kids killing themselves because of social pressure, etc.

There have been two studies, recently released, which make Facebook look bad...particularly for women.
