Whenever I see a settlement website like this, I always wonder how I can really trust it. Is there some easy way I can verify this isn't just a spammer's clever ploy to collect peoples' emails?
- liareye 10y agoYes, submit a claim, and see if a check comes in the mail. Deposit it in your bank account. See if it clears. If you get this far, it's not a scam.
- ourmandave 10y agoUnless it's one of those "by cashing this $5 check you agree to all sorts of asshatery in the fine print."
- breakingcups 10y agoCAREFUL! A cleared check doesn't mean it actually cleared and you'll be on the hook for depositing a fraudulent check. If a bank tells you it cleared it means nothing.

- heywire 10y agoOddly enough, my workplace's McAfee Web Gateway filters this as a spam site.
- cowsandmilk 10y agolook up the case in PACER and see if everything matches? This page gives you a court and case number, so that should be enough.
- revelation 10y agoSend snail mail then.
- S_Daedalus 10y agoThat was my first reaction, then I realized that for $10 I don't actually care to find out or risk anything. I'm sure that it's more a clever ploy by some lawyers to get very rich however.
