  • Sony Agrees To $17.75 Million Settlement For 2011 PSN Attack

    By Unknown Lamer

    mrspoonsi writes with word that Sony has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit brought by PSN users affected by the 2011 breach.

    From the article: Sony has finally agreed to a preliminary settlement of $15m, which may be able to appease most of the customers that suffered from this attack.

    The PlayStation Network users that did not partake in the "Welcome Back" program that Sony unveiled shortly after their online services were brought back will be able to choose from two of several options for compensation:

    One PlayStation 3 or PlayStation Portable game selected from a list of 14 games; three PlayStation 3 themes selected from a list of six themes; or a three-month subscription to PlayStation Plus free of charge.

    Claiming these benefits will be done on a first come, first serve basis...

    The settlement isn't just about free games or services. Customers with documented identity theft charges are eligible for up to $2,500 per claim.
