Show Notes
Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Flood highlights his offices efforts to protect consumers during National Consumer Protection Week. Last year, they recovered millions through settlements and actions against deceptive practices, including a $6.6 million deal with Mercedes-Benz for emissions testing failures, and a $4.5 million settlement with Kia and Hyundai for missing anti-theft tech. They also secured medical records for 43,000 patients after hospital closures, and obtained a $1.55 million deal against Dollar General for overcharging. The office launched an Elder Exploitation Section and joined a coalition pushing for chatbot safeguards. They continue to combat robocalls, imposter schemes, ticket fraud, and holiday cons, reaching over 125,000 residents. File a complaint online, call the hotline, or email [email protected] for help.
