Comscore Fair Fund Settlement
What happened
From February 2014 through February 2018, Comscore's former CEO directed a fraudulent scheme involving manipulation of non-monetary and monetary contracts that overstated revenue by approximately $43 million in public filings. The company also made false and misleading statements about performance metrics from April 2014 through February 2016. Comscore was ordered to pay $5 million and its CEO to pay $700,000 in civil penalties.

Common questions
- How much does the Comscore Fair Fund Settlement pay?
- The total settlement fund is $5.7M. Actual amounts depend on how many valid claims are filed — most settlements divide a fixed fund pro rata, so a higher claim rate means a smaller individual check. An "up to" figure is a cap, not a guarantee.
- Do I need proof of purchase for the Comscore Fair Fund Settlement?
- Yes. This settlement asks for documentation supporting your claim — a receipt, an account record, or the notice you were sent. Check the official settlement website for exactly which documents are accepted.
- Is the Comscore Fair Fund Settlement notice real, or a scam?
- JND Legal Administration is the settlement administrator for this case. Claims are filed at comscorefairfund.com. Filing a class action claim is always free — no legitimate settlement charges you to claim, and no administrator will ask for payment, a gift card, or your full Social Security number by email or text. If a notice asks for any of those, it is not from the administrator. When in doubt, ignore the link you were sent and go to the official settlement website directly.
- How long until I get paid from the Comscore Fair Fund Settlement?
- Class action payouts typically take 12 to 24 months after the claim deadline, and longer if the settlement is appealed. Payments cannot be issued until the court grants final approval and any appeals are resolved.
- What happens if I do nothing?
- You receive no payment, and in most class actions you also give up the right to sue Comscore, Inc. separately over these same claims.
