Privacy part, sure if true. I'd argue it doesn't make sense to charge them more than what Google paid, which used the data for ads. Epic I'd imagine uses the data more for tracking dau and less nasty reasons. For the second part of tricking millions of players into making unintended purchases, idk about this one. In Fortnite for example, it's pretty transparent when you are paying real money. You either buy v-bucks to then purchase skins. Or you buy the season pass once and it's clear real money is involved. Anytime I talk with kids, it seems like they are fully aware it takes real money to buy them and they are either saving up or asking their parents for b-day/Christmas to get v-bucks or the season pass.
