File Your Claim →What Happened?
Athena Bitcoin, a cryptocurrency ATM operator, was sued for sending unsolicited promotional text messages to consumers' cell phones without obtaining prior express written consent, in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act. The TCPA prohibits companies from sending automated marketing texts to cell phones without consent, and violations can result in statutory damages per message sent.
As cryptocurrency companies have ramped up marketing efforts to attract new customers, TCPA lawsuits targeting crypto firms for unsolicited texts and calls have become increasingly common. Athena Bitcoin agreed to pay $4.5 million to settle the class action.
