I just received an email from Tabak vs Apple Qualified Settlement Fund via checkbook.io. Has anyone received the same email and is it legit or a scam?

I didn’t get an email, but money in my account.
It appears that some iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus owners in the United States are now reporting receipt of payments from the Tabak v Apple Qualified Settlement Fund. This development follows the conclusion of a class-action lawsuit that accused Apple of concealing an audio playback defect in these models.
The lawsuit, titled Tabak et al. v. Apple Inc., centered around allegations that a significant number of iPhone 7 and 7 Plus units suffered from audio issues due to a faulty audio IC chip, colloquially known as “loop disease.” This defect was claimed to lead to audio playback problems, necessitating repairs or replacements at the expense of consumers.
