So you should already know the content of what you signed up for. (only just signed up recently though so dunno if it was changed!) The emails shouldn't look shady because YOU are the one who signed up for a GAMESTOP POWER UP REWARDS ACCOUNT. I'm honestly confused because when you first set up your account as a basic rewards account they give you the option to choose to auto redeem or let it accumulate until you want to redeem your codes. They don't, after all, want to automatically drain the accounts of people with paid accounts.) If you have a paid account it defaults to keeping your points. (Also notice that Gamestop only does this for a non-paid account. Years of Powerup Rewards, down the drain almost instantly, because Gamestop requires you to take positive action to avoid being screwed over. I lost $15 already because of this scam-almost the entire amount that I had in Powerup Rewards. This is one of those dark patterns, a case where the user interface is designed to screw over the customer, while maintaining some plausible deniability in that technically if you navigate the user interface, you can avoid being screwed, so it's "your fault" and the company is blameless. (And even if you notice it, you're stuck with your account being drained by 5000 points unless there's actually something you want to buy at that moment.) Likely you will ignore it, and it will expire, with the result that your account is drained by 5000 points every month. If you don't have the paid Powerup Rewards it gets converted to automatically redeem the rewards each month as a $5 coupon, the least useful one.
