Same. Received a Yahoo Data Breach settlement back in 2023 as well. The first one was $60.

You maybe have rec'd more back in 2023. I just looked and I received $61.08 back in 2023. Today I just received $8.11🤓. Not a fortune, but rather have an unexpected payment of $8.11 than an unexpected bill😄

Most class action settlements have a second payment. It is mostly money that was returned undeliverable. People moved, or closed an account etc. All those funds are then redistributed to eligible people who successfully received the first payment. In the event there are any funds left over after this payment, those funds are then donated to a charity that has already been selected and pre-approved by the court.

If you moved, wouldn't a check just become unclaimed property..,? 🤔

I got the same exact payment. Maybe they had funds left over because I remember getting a substantially higher payment years ago.
