Email users who have or had a Yahoo! account between January of 2012 and December of 2016, listen up -- Yahoo! has settled a class action lawsuit regarding its data breaches that occurred during those time periods.
As part of the $117 million settlement, users can receive 2 years worth of free credit monitoring protection. However, if you already have credit monitoring protection and can verify that, you can actually request compensation instead.
The settlement says your cash payment likely would range between $100 and $358.80, depending on how many participants provide verification of their monitoring services.
You have until July 20, 2020 to file your claim, and I definitely recommend doing so, whichever option you choose.
