ST. LOUIS — A consumer is suing a telemarketing company, citing alleged invasion of privacy.
Gabrielle Figueroa filed a complaint individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated on April 26 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri against Everalbum Inc. alleging that the telemarketing company violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.
According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that she has suffered actual damages by having to pay her wireless carrier and have to pay the cost of electricity to recharge her cellphone's depleted battery.
