Did you get a notice from the FTC related to Vivint? File your claim by October 9. 2023. Go to www.ftc.gov/vivint for more.

No company should misuse a person’s personal information — especially when it’s to open accounts for someone else. But that’s exactly what the FTC charged Vivint Smart Home, Inc. with doing. And that’s why 9,000 people will be getting a notice from the FTC about the Vivint settlement.

The FTC began sending notices by mail and email today. If you get one, it means you’re eligible to file your claim in one of the following ways:

  • Submit your claim online at ftc.gov/Vivint;
  • Mail in the claim form using the enclosed pre-paid envelope; or
  • Call 1-833-472-1996 to request a printed claim form.

Don’t wait. You have until October 9, 2023 to file a claim.

If you have any questions about the process, visit ftc.gov/Vivint or call 1-833-472-1996.

Worried about refund scams? Remember:

  • The FTC will never charge you to file a refund claim form. Anyone who tells you that you have to pay to file a refund claim is a scammer.

How do I know that I can trust any of this? Every time I try to see if information like this is true, I end up getting hacked, scammed, or even fraud. I'm a victim of fraud, and my identity has been stolen from the data breech that happened this year that affected 8.9 million people. My credit score is dramatically decreasing and I don't know what to do.

Report identity theft and get help making a recovery plan. Go to the federal government website www.IdentityTheft.gov and tell what happened. You can create a personal recovery plan and get pre-filled letters and forms to help you address problems caused by identity theft.

I haven't spent any money on the debt, but I have disputed many claims from various debt collectors. I just found out yet another collector is trying to collect on the fraudulent account. What can I do?

Not only did Vivint misuse my excellent credit to open an account for an unqualified person, they used or allowed her to use my credit card. Every month for 6 months I had to report fraud on my card account. I spent hours on the phone with Vivint and they didn't care and wouldn't close the account. The only resolution was to cancel my card permanently. Each time a replacement card was issued the bill would transfer to the new card.
