I received this via email a week ago. Did anyone else receive this or know anything about it? Didn't know if maybe it was spam mail.
Hillis v. Equifax Consumer Services, Inc. and Fair Isaac Corp., Case No.
1:04-CV-3400 (USDC, ND GA) and
Slack v. Fair Isaac Corp. and MyFICO Consumer Services, Inc., Case No. 1:07-
CV-314 (USDC, ND GA)
A FEDERAL COURT ORDERED THIS NOTICE. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION FROM A
LAWYER. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION BY EQUIFAX OR FAIR ISAAC TO PURCHASE
ANYTHING.
PLEASE READ.
A federal court has directed that this notice be sent to inform you of the
status of the Settlement of the lawsuits identified above against defendants
alleging violations of federal and state law with respect to the marketing,
advertising and sale of certain credit score and credit monitoring offerings.
In March, April or May, 2007, you were provided with notice of the proposed
Settlement, a description of your rights and obligations, and your options.
The purpose of this Notice is to inform you that the Court has approved the
Settlement, and it has become Final.
Under the terms of the Settlement, Class Members are eligible to receive
Score Watch - free for 3 or 6 months. In order to receive the free months of
Score Watch, you need only submit an Authentication Form either on-line or by
mail.
Score Watch(TM) is offered for sale by both Equifax and Fair Isaac. It
monitors a consumer's Equifax credit file and FICO(R) score, and provides up
to two Equifax Score Power reports. The current retail value of Score
Watch(TM) is approximately $7.95-8.95 per month.
If you have already submitted an Authentication Form, you do not need to do
anything else.
If you have not submitted an Authentication Form and wish to receive the free
months of Score Watch, you must submit an Authentication Form by November 20,
2007. This Authentication Form is necessary to assure that Equifax, Fair
Isaac and Class Members' privacy rights are protected and to assure that only
Class Members receive the free Score Watch. An Authentication Form may be
obtained on-line at www.hillisslacksettlement.com, by calling 800-262-0454 or
by sending a written request to the Settlement Administrator at Hillis Slack
Settlement, c/o The Garden City, Inc. P.O. Box 9114, Dublin, OH 43017-4114. Your
Authentication Form must be submitted on-line or postmarked (if sent by mail)
not later than November 20, 2007.
Beginning on or about December 5, 2007, the Settlement Administrator will
begin distributing Benefit Codes by email to all eligible Class Members who
timely submit an Authentication Form. A Benefit Code is simply an alpha-
numeric code provided to you by e-mail with a link to a website maintained by
Equifax or Fair Isaac where all you will have to do to receive your free
Score Watch is complete the authentication process and plug in the Benefit
Code. You will not be asked to purchase anything. The Benefit Code Notice
will contain information on how to obtain your free months of Score Watch.
The distribution of the Benefit Codes will be staggered over a 6 month
period. Benefit Codes will be distributed in alphabetical order.
Information about the status of the distribution of the Benefit Codes will be
available at www.hillisslacksettlement.com.
