Folks who made unwanted purchases in Fortnitecan still cash in.
Epic Games reached a $520 million settlement with the Federal Trade Commission over allegations that parents,Watch Scott Pilgrim vs. the World Online gamers, and others were tricked into making purchases. Around half of that sum, $245 million, was set aside to refund customers affected by the in-game purchase allegations.
The deadline for applying for a settlement, however, is quickly approaching. You have to file by Jan. 10, 2025, which you can do on the FTC's website.
There are some stipulations to getting a refund. The FTC said, in a statement, that you could apply for a refund if any of these things are true:
You were charged in-game currency for items you didn’t want between January 2017 and September 2022
Your child made charges to your credit card without your knowledge between January 2017 and November 2018
Your account was locked between January 2017 and September 2022 after you complained to your credit card company about wrongful charges
You have to be at least 18 years old to file a refund claim. You can file that claim at www.fortniterefund.com/file-a-claim. To make the claim, you'll need a claim number or your Epic Account ID. Those who have a claim number should've received an email with the information. Again, the deadline to file a claim is Jan. 10, 2025.
The FTC said in a statement this month that it was sending out 629,344 payments totaling more than $72 million to folks who filed a valid claim by Oct. 8, 2024. The FTC is still reviewing claims made after Oct. 8 and onward.
The FTC had alleged that Epic Games made it easy for users to make unexpected charges, including by letting underage players rack up in-game purchases.
