The following describes a government action that has been resolved by either a settlement or a decision by a court or administrative agency. If the matter is being appealed, it will be noted below:
On January 2, 2024 the United States of America, acting upon notification and authorization to the Attorney General by the Federal Trade Commission (“Commission” or “FTC”) proposed a Stipulated Order for Permanent Injunction, Civil Penalty Judgement, and other relief against Response Tree LLC and its president Derek Thomas Doherty. According to the FTC's Complaint, the defendants operated more than 50 websites designed to trick consumers into providing their personal information for supposed mortgage refinancing loans and other services. They allegedly sold the personal information of hundreds of thousands of consumers as leads to telemarketers who used them to make millions of illegal telemarketing calls, including robocalls, to consumers nationwide. The defendants neither confirm nor deny these allegations. The proposed order bans the defendants from initiating or helping anyone else initiate telemarketing robocalls. It also bans them from calling, or assisting anyone else in calling, phone numbers on the DNC Registry and from selling, transferring, or disclosing consumer information in connection with lead generation activities. The order also imposes a $7 million judgment against the defendants, which will be suspended based on their inability to pay.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
