I found this in my inbox today, it appears to be legit..

Google rarely contacts Gmail users via email, but we are making an exception to let you know that we've reached a settlement in a lawsuit regarding Google Buzz (http://buzz.google.com), a service we launched within Gmail in February of this year. |
Blah blah, yada, yada etc...
Quote: |
Just to be clear, this is not a settlement in which people who use Gmail can file to receive compensation. Everyone in the U.S. who uses Gmail is included in the settlement, unless you personally decide to opt out before December 6, 2010. |
You can see where this is going can't you? Stand by for Google's lawyers writing to you, in all capitals, inviting you to register for your 'COMPENSATIONS' by sending a fee to their legal department at... |

Received the same email in two of my Gmail accounts today.
Would give the Google "lawyers" etc to start popping up out of the ether in the next 24 hours. |

Recived that one too. It actually looks legit, but scammers might start using it. |

Got the same. I guess it's legit. It's from @google, not @gmail or @googlemail
So all US googizens are getting six and a half cents each? (Except for some lawyers who get millions.) Wow! Don't spend it all at once.. |

Definitely legit ... but I think the OP just means the scammers will start using this as part of a script.
Sadly I think they will actually make some money on this... |

I got it in all of my gmail accounts. Good news for a rich eccentric alcoholic, a retired secret agent, a soccer mom who hooks on the side, and the son of the North Korean Deputy Minister for Nightsoil. |
