# Video Interview: Discussing Spokeo’s FTC Settlement with LXBN TV

 June 18, 2012

 

 

 

 

 

 

Following up on my [post ](http://www.adlawaccess.com/2012/06/articles/federal-trade-commission/spokeo-agrees-to-pay-800000-to-settle-charges-of-fcra-violations/)on the subject, last week I had the opportunity to speak with Colin O’Keefe of [LXBN](http://lxbn.lexblog.com) regarding Spokeo’s $800,000 settlement with the FTC. In the brief interview, I explain what Spokeo does, how they allegedly violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act and Section 5 of the FTC Act and what other companies can learn from this settlement.
