Perhaps they will. Perhaps they would have anyway whether there was a lawsuit or not. Given that Paypal is owned by ebay, it wouldn't surprise me. I haven't read the details of what the naughty was that Paypal did to encourage people to sue them, but I do know that when Sothebys was sued for their naughties, MovieArt got back class action settlements of over $5000. I was surprised, because I didn't calculate it closely and I did not think we had done that much business with them. So if you are a big Paypal user, it might behoove you to follow this lead of Ms. Weaver and fill out those forms, send them in, and get your decoder ring!

I received one, completed the form and sent it in already. It looked legit to me (and most of them don't for a variety of reasons). But they didn't ask for SSNs, account numbers, passwords, or anything of that nature--nothing that I would normally keep private, so I signed the form and mailed it yesterday.
Of course with a $9.5 million payout for this suit (assuming it's legit), you can bet fees will go up. Thanks, Judi
