FTC sends payments to people who paid for a real estate investment training program
The FTC is sending payments to people who paid for a deceptive real estate investment training program from Response Marketing.
The FTC and the Utah Division of Consumer Protection sued Response Marketing, and the company paid money to settle. According to the lawsuit, Response Marketing used celebrity endorsements and empty promises about earning big profits “flipping” houses to sell their bogus training programs.
The FTC first sent payments in March 2024, which resulted in more than $8.2 million in refunds. Because the FTC collected additional funds, we are sending 3,955 payments totaling more than $8.3 million to people who accepted their first payment or filed a valid claim before the deadline.
If you get a check, please cash it within 90 days.
If you get a PayPal payment, please accept it within 30 days.
