Amazon.com Inc. has agreed to pay $2.25 million to resolve U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) allegations tied to identity theft. The FTC claims that Amazon routinely fails to provide records that could help customers who become victims of identity theft, including information about purchases made using fraudulent accounts. According to the complaint, Amazon’s alleged conduct violates provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The settlement ends the FTC’s case in the U.S., with Amazon neither publicly described as admitting wrongdoing nor disputing the settlement outcome in the reports summarized. The $2.25 million payment is framed as a settlement amount to resolve the agency’s claims and bring the matter to a close. The dispute centers on whether Amazon provides sufficient transaction records to assist affected customers in identifying and responding to unauthorized purchases. The agreement follows earlier reporting that the FTC sought a settlement over Amazon’s handling of identity theft-related record requests.
