Watch out for
- The only official site is psndigitalgamessettlement.com — the administrator is AB Data. Don't respond to any emails or texts directing you to a different domain.
- Deactivated account holders who don't proactively contact the administrator will likely miss out — the automatic wallet deposit has nowhere to land.
- Excluding yourself means you give up your right to any payment from this settlement but preserve the right to sue separately.
We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
