Hmmm
So far I've been an unwitting member of these legal actions:
1) BMG. Got a CD for $3 w/ free shipping. Settlement after some people sued for unfair shipping charges. I was a BMG member for a few years.
2) Epson. Got an e-card for $45 to spend on their website. Settlement after some people sued claiming that their printers indicated the cartridges were empty when they were really not. I bought an epson printer a few years ago.
3) Western Union. Got a $1 coupon for my next visit. Settlement after some people sued for unfair pricing. Used western union occassionally.
4) I just got a notice from a firm (representing some employees) asking me if I wanted to be a part of a class action suit they were bringing against my ex-company for unpaid wages and unfair work practices. What's a girl to do? Hmmm.
So next time you get junk mail, don't be so quick to throw it out!
