I was just trying to claim it an hour ago... But then I noticed my account name kept changing to Stealth Ninja 500 or similar... Is this a hacker trying to jump in at the point of sale?!? I tried signing out, signed back in as me... Then it changed to same name again at the same point, just before I clicked purchase..!
Like, perhaps an automated bot that doesn't realise the game is free anyway, or something..?

Sweeney's attitude doesn't make me want to ever ever buy anything from modern Epic Games, but I will claim free stuff.

100+ game library on epic.
Still 0€ spent on epic.

Similar thing here I bought one game on epic and claimed I’ve lost count of free ones
…then I bought the game I got on epic for cheaper and with all the DLC on steam

That possibly happened for the same reason it happened to steam a few years ago. Tom Scott explains it pretty well: https://youtu.be/dkSslseq9Y8

If it's free on Epic or in this list https://steamdb.info/instantsearch/?query=dying&refinementList%5Btechnologies%5D%5B0%5D=SDK.EpicOnlineServices it's a hard pass for me
