FTC v. NGL

NGL and two of its co-founders allegedly engaged in a host of law violations related to their anonymous messaging app, including unfairly marketing the service to children and teens. The agencies charged NGL and its co-founders with sending fake messages that appeared to come from real people and tricked users into signing up for paid subscriptions to NGL Pro by falsely claiming that doing so would reveal the identity of the senders of messages. NGL and its co-founders also allegedly failed to obtain consent for recurring charges, according to the FTC.
