Online Threat Alerts (OTA) - Alerting you to scams and frauds.
The Google Referrer Header Privacy Settlement lawsuit is not a scam. The Distribution of Settlement payments began. Approved claimants who selected to receive their payment electronically will receive an email or text message from one of the following: PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, the recipient bank, or ReferrerHeaderSettlement@HawkMarketplace.com (for virtual Mastercard payments).
The Settlement would resolve the legal claims in the Lawsuit against Google. Google denies all these claims and the Settlement is not an admission of wrongdoing by Google. Under the Settlement, Google will pay $23 million to make payments to settlement class members who file claims, payments to class representatives, attorneys’ fees, litigation costs, and settlement administration costs related to the Settlement. Google will also revise its “FAQs” and “Key Terms” webpages regarding how and when search queries may be disclosed to third parties via referrer headers.
