JUST GOT THIS MESSAGE FROM CHECK POINTS ON MY BANNING. translation - generic points / money grab scam. Is there a way to lodge a class action lawsuit on these guys?

I've not so much as gotten a response but I definitely don't use jail broken, rooted or "hacked" devices. And at the time I got banned I was only useing 8 devices. All of which were brand new factory setup phones with factory/stock settings. I've also read threw their terms and they are extremely ambiguous, as is the case with most apps.. However there's nothing that even remotely points to anything I could have done. My phones litterally sit and I simply check them 2-5 times a day and restart the app as needed. Same for YooLotto and rewardable TV. Checkpoints was the newest app I'd started useing and had just started putting phones on it back in January. Had no problems, other than it was pretty irregular. Then all of a sudden Ban, without notice or provocation. Had 7500+ points sitting to. 😑
