WASHINGTON — The Federal Trade Commission is alleging that T-Mobile USA, Inc., made "hundreds of millions" of dollars off its customers through bogus charges.
In a complaint filed Tuesday, the F.T.C. says the mobile phone provider billed consumers for subscriptions to "premium" texts such as $10-per-month horoscopes that were never authorized by the account holder. The agency alleges that T-Mobile collected as much as 40 percent of the charges, even after being made aware that the subscriptions were scams.
Edith Ramirez, chairwoman of the F.TC., said in a statement that the agency's goal is to ensure T-Mobile repays its customers. She said there were, "clear warning signs the charges it was imposing were fraudulent."
