(Gray News) – You could soon be getting money from a years-old $90 million class action lawsuit filed against Facebook.
The lawsuit was filed in 2022, accusing the company of improperly collecting and storing personal data from Facebook user who went to third-party websites with the Facebook “Like” button.
Anyone in the United States who went to a non-Facebook website that displayed the “Like” button between April 22, 2010, and September 26, 2011, were eligible to submit a claim to receive payment.
According to litigation documents, payments were issued April 10, 2025 to class members who submitted a valid claim form in this case.
The final amount is the $90 million, minus attorney and court administration fees and service awards to class representatives, divided by the number of those who submitted a valid claim.
Payments will be delivered via PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, virtual prepaid card or by check.
