A message from TCA President, Scott Hardy:
To all of our faithful and awesome viewers:
 
First, THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING US! We wouldn’t be here without you! It’s been amazing to watch us grow!
 
Second, PLEASE only submit claims you’re qualified for. Submitting false claims is not only illegal, it hurts the people who TRULY have a claim. Every false claim lowers the amount legitimate claimants can get, adds additional unneeded work to the settlement administrator, as they have to attempt to verify more claims (which delays payments for everyone), and it also makes settlement administrators much less likely to include internet notifications with groups like Top Class Actions as part of the advertising plan, which means YOU won’t hear about all of the settlements out there. False claims are a persistent problem and will result in less and less settlements getting listed on websites like Top Class Actions. Oh, and bragging about a false claim on social media is DUMB! Don’t you think settlement administrators are watching to see who’s dumb enough to comment or brag about doing something illegal? At a minimum those people will end up getting blacklisted and denied future claims, at a maximum you may start to see people get indicted for fraud. Remember, back in the 90s and early 2000s when we said, “They won’t ever go after anyone for downloading music illegally!” What happened? Many, MANY people got sued for thousands upon thousands of dollars and LOST.
