FTC向65,022名消费者发放逾980万美元退款 源于沃尔玛未阻止汇款诈骗案
华盛顿——联邦贸易委员会（FTC）宣布，将向65,022名消费者发放总额逾980万美元的退款，退款以支票形式寄出，须在90天内兑现。此次退款源于FTC针对沃尔玛的案件：FTC指控沃尔玛未阻止诈骗者利用其门店汇款服务实施诈骗，受害者被骗金额达数亿美元。
FTC于2022年6月起诉沃尔玛；沃尔玛2025年6月以1,000万美元和解。退款由Rust Consulting公司管理，咨询电话1-833-472-1990。FTC提醒，委员会从不要求消费者先付款或提供账户信息以换取退款。
FTC Sends More Than $9.8 Million to 65,022 Consumers Harmed in Walmart Wire Transfer Case
WASHINGTON — The Federal Trade Commission announced it is sending more than $9.8 million in refunds to 65,022 consumers harmed by Walmart's failure to stop scammers who used its wire transfer services. The refunds are being sent by check and must be cashed within 90 days.
The payments stem from the FTC's case against Walmart, filed in June 2022, alleging the company failed to prevent fraudsters from using its money transfer services, through which victims lost hundreds of millions of dollars. Walmart settled in June 2025 for $10 million. Rust Consulting is administering the refunds and can be reached at 1-833-472-1990. The FTC notes it never requires consumers to pay or provide account information to receive a refund.
