FleetOne Junk Fax Settlement Notes
- Swinter Group Inc. v. FleetOne LLC
- Case No. 1611-CC00730-01
- Pending in The Circuit Court of Missouri for the Eleventh Judicial Circuit County of St. Charles
Plaintiff Swinter Group Inc. filed this telemarketing class action lawsuit in August 2016 alleging FleetOne LLC violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) by sending unsolicited fax advertisements without the plaintiff’s consent. Additionally, the class action lawsuit contends that these junk faxes failed to contain an opt-out statement as required by federal law.
In 2005, the Junk Fax Prevention Act amended the TCPA to permit the sending of unsolicited fax advertisements to individuals and businesses with which the sender has an established business relationship and to provide a process by which any sender must cease sending such advertisements upon the request of the recipient. The statute requires the sender of fax advertisements must provide notice and contact information on the fax that allows recipients to opt out of future fax transmissions from the sender and requires senders to honor opt out requests within the shortest reasonable period of time, not to exceed 30 days.
FleetOne denies any actions of wrong doing but have agreed to $750,000.00 settlement pool in order to avoid further litigation.
