fax spam class action lawsuit

A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit accusing Trxade Group Inc. and Westminster Pharmaceuticals LLC of violating the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by sending fax advertisements without the prior express consent of the recipients.

If you did not have an established relationship with Trxade Group Inc. and Westminster Pharmacy but you received one or more faxed advertisements or solicitations between Jan. 1, 2012 and Nov. 4, 2016, you may be entitled to payment from the TCPA class action settlement.

According to the fax spam class action lawsuit, Trxade Group and Westminster Pharmacy sent faxed advertisements that did not contain the opt-out notice required by the TCPA.

In addition, plaintiff Family Medicine Pharmacy LLC asserts that the faxed advertisements were sent to recipients without their consent.

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act is a federal law that prevents solicitors from making robocalls, unsolicited text messages or sending unsolicited fax advertisements to consumers without their consent. The TCPA requires companies that send faxed advertisements to include an option to opt out of receiving future fax spam.

Companies found to be in violation of the TCPA may be liable for damages between $500 and $1,000 per violation.

The defendants deny any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the TCPA class action lawsuit to avoid the expense and uncertainty of ongoing litigation.

The Trxade Group TCPA settlement was preliminarily approved on Nov. 4, 2016.

If you would like to opt out of or object to the fax spam class action settlement, you must do so no later than Jan. 17, 2017.

Class Members of the Trxade Group TCPA settlement include: “Any and all individuals and/or entities who did not have an established business relationship with Trxade Group, Inc. and Westminster Pharmaceuticals, LLC located in any state, district, or territory in the United States that received one or more advertisements or solicitations via facsimile from Defendants during the Class Period.”

Under the terms of the TCPA class action settlement, the Class Period is Jan. 1, 2012 through Nov. 4, 2016.
