Unsolicited Faxes Class Action Filed Against Spreemo & The Hartford

Unsolicited Faxes Class Action Filed Against Spreemo & The Hartford

Kehoe Law Firm, P.C. is making consumers aware that on May 7, 2018, a class action complaint was filed against Spreemo, Inc. and The Hartford Financial Services Group for allegedly sending at least one advertisement by facsimile to Plaintiff in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (“TCPA”).  The fax advertisement, according to the complaint, was sent to Plaintiff without his prior express consent to receive an advertisement via fax from the Defendants.  Further, the Plaintiff, allegedly, did not have an established business relationship with Spreemo and The Hartford Financial Services Group.

According to the class action complaint, Spreemo, “a healthcare platform or vendor that connects patients and their insurers with diagnostic testing providers,” and The Hartford Financial Services Group, “an insurance company providing employee benefits, among other insurance products,” “sent advertisements by facsimile to Plaintiff and more than 39 persons in violation of the TCPA.”  The faxed advertisements promoted “Spreemo’s services locating and recommending radiological imaging providers for The Hartford patients.”

The TCPA class action, filed on behalf of a class of all persons or entities which received one or more fax messages “promoting Spreemo’s services locating and recommending radiological imaging providers for The Hartford patients,” seeks, among other things, statutory damages and injunctive relief.  The lawsuit was filed in United States District Court, Eastern District of Pennsylvania (5:18-cv-01902-LS), and a copy of the one-page “Spreemo Health”-related fax received by Plaintiff and listed as an exhibit in the complaint can be viewed by clicking here.
