Consumer Alert: Scam warning as big settlements start to pay out
Action News 2
GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) - Tens of millions of dollars are being re-paid to victims of fraud. The Federal Trade Commission says checks are in the mail--but they also warn that scammers may be taking this opportunity to try to steal your money.
The legitimate checks are from two separate cases. The first is a $31 million settlement with the company Lifelock. The second is a $2.7 million fraud lawsuit with Pro Timeshare Resales LLC, J. Williams Enterprises.
The FTC says Lifelock falsely advertised that it protected sensitive customer data with the same high level safeguards used by financial institutions. CLICK HERE to learn more about the Lifelock refund.
