I let them do it, I only asked questions.
You must have some motivation if you get involved in a lawsuit for a few euros (and that's all you're going to get).
It's a class action. Even if you lose, you won't bear any Risk (costs). If you are successful, you get money. So you have no disadvantages, only advantages. That is the motivation.
I had two e-mails from Jokerstar in my mailbox this morning. Tonight at 4am someone tried to change the password twice and the jokerstar account was blocked. I'm leaving it blocked too, I don't want to have anything more to do with these pig clubs. I can't wait to see what else comes around the corner...
Maybe everyone from the database will soon be banned from oasis or lugas or whatever it's called... Life sentence... 🤔 🤣

I received the email despite my account being blocked. A whole twelve times.
I then contacted the support team. They were also hacked, but supposedly everything is safe 😂

It's all good, you were just asking. Nobody knows everything The topic itself is a bit new, so it's understandable that not everyone knows that their own data has value and that companies have had to take much more care of data security by law for a few years now and if they mess up, they have to pay a fine and pay compensation.
This makes it easier for you to understand why many people are joining this class action lawsuit. I mean, it's like if someone insults you (compensation for pain and suffering due to insult |§| compensation for damages), you report them and sue them and demand compensation, even though you haven't actually suffered any material damage. It's not really any different here. Data can be regarded as "immaterial" and a lot of mischief can be done with the data through access by third parties (has already been explained here several times).
You also have to look at it positively. It's a good thing for consumers that companies have to take data protection much more seriously. Perhaps you can now better understand why some people here are outraged at how easy Merkur wants to make this look.
So far at least I haven't received any emails about resetting my password, even though I'm registered at all the casinos concerned. So it's kind of completely random who it happens to....

Same with me. I've just read about the attack for the first time. Otherwise I wouldn't have known about it.

There will be a reason why they do not make advance payments without RV as originally stated.
I have not yet received an email from Protectra in this regard.
I had also registered for the class action without legal protection insurance.

Which provider do you mean? Protectra?
Personally, I have not yet received such an email, although I do not have RSV & have indicated this.
For SlotMagie and Merkur Bets, I have since been offered to participate in a model claim.
Crazybuzzer will probably be next.
I found SlotMagie's response to my request for information very amusing (cheeky):
In order to process your request, please attach proof of identity (e.g. a copy of a valid ID document).
Yes, of course. I will definitely send a copy of my ID to the association that has just lost control over, among other things, copies of ID cards.
Uh... no.
Have not yet received an email from Protectra regarding this.
I had also registered for the class action without legal protection insurance.
I received an email today
Had to enter my data, put SlotMagie in the CC for the purpose of data information. I also have no Rv
Here is the mail
it has been a long journey, but we have reached our goal: first the European Court of Justice and now, at the end of last year, the Federal Court of Justice have endorsed our view and affirmed a claim for damages in the event of data leaks. This confirms the argument we developed over a good five years, which many higher regional courts had still rejected: You have suffered damage as a result of the loss of control, which must be compensated by a monetary payment.
In order to move the matter forward, we would like to offer you the opportunity to act as a model claimant. If you have legal expenses Insurance, you can enter the relevant details in our form. If you are instructed with legal expenses insurance, you will not pay a success fee, but will receive 100% of the amount won. We will also pay your excess if you are unsuccessful (if you win the case, your opponent will have to reimburse you). With the Federal Court of Justice behind you, your claim will then go to court very quickly.
Of course, we will continue to represent you - as agreed - for a success fee if you do not have legal expenses insurance or do not wish to use it. In this case, too, please complete the form.
Meal time,
Everyone should be aware that the gambling supervisory authority played its part and made this data leak possible. After the takeover of the SlotMagie platform by the Merkur Group was completed, the GGL should have demanded security checks and evidence. However, this was probably not done, otherwise it would have been noticed that there was a data leak. The gambling supervisory authority is still obliged to check the security of such takeovers, among other things, but this has most likely not happened. Instead of pushing ahead with a thorough investigation, the gambling supervisory authority immediately dismissed the Merkur Group. The old blame of the old share is completely left out.
Next, the gambling supervisory authority was convicted by a court in Mainz in 2023 because the gambling prospect carries out a credit check when a limit is increased to determine whether the player is solvent. The court in Mainz states that a customer's solvency can certainly not be determined via a Schufa query credit check credit report here and that this is completely unsuitable. And waiting again, the gambling supervisory authority has not changed anything to this day.
They continue to happily obtain credit reports from customers without informing them in advance, without informing them and without obtaining their prior consent.
This authority should slowly be put out of business

If it's successful, you pay 25%, but if it's lost, you pay nothing.

If this is the case, you claim 25% of the sum for yourself.
Otherwise, Protectra bears the costs.
