The following email is what I received today and another client of mine received it shortly afterwards (weird, I was remoted into her computer when I saw it come in and told her to just delete it as it was probably spam), but then I realized…it could be real. I checked and it’s good. If you want to get $5 or $10 and if you were in a sponsored ad, go for it!
| NOTICE OF PENDING CLASS ACTION AND NOTICE OF PROPOSED SETTLEMENT |
| ANGEL FRALEY V. FACEBOOK, INC. |
| You are receiving this e-mail because you may have been featured in a “Sponsored Story” on Facebook prior to December 3, 2012. |
| A federal court authorized this Notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer. |
This avid social media maniac is not going to spend time to do this to get back $10. But hey, it’s $10 if were in an ad.
