FTC Trend Deploy Refunds

The FTC is sending 9,419 checks totaling more than $672,000 to people who bought facemasks and other personal protective equipment from the online marketer Trend Deploy during the COVID-19 pandemic, which the FTC says failed to ship on time and refused cancellations or refunds. The checks are mailed directly and the page describes no claim form; if one arrives, cash it within 90 days. The FTC's page does not state a date range for eligible purchases, so call the refund administrator on 1-833-609-9714 to check whether you may be eligible. The FTC will not ask you to pay money to receive a refund.

There is no claim form for this one. The administrator pays consumers it has already identified, so the useful step is to make sure they can reach you — not to file anything. Anyone offering to file it for you, for a fee, is selling you nothing.
