A pivotal 2021 Supreme Court decision significantly limited the Federal Trade Commission's power to return money to victims of consumer fraud. Between 2016 and 2020, the FTC successfully returned over $11 billion to people who were ripped off. However, following this legal shift, that number dropped to approximately $2 billion, creating a massive gap between the rise in scams and the justice served to consumers.
Financial scams have reached record-breaking levels, with consumers losing an estimated $15.9 billion to fraud in 2025 alone. Despite this staggering increase in illegal activity, the legal hurdles faced by the FTC mean that less money is being recovered for victims. This creates a situation where the system feels designed to let corporations win while consumer losses continue to skyrocket.
Many consumers experience extreme frustration when trying to cancel subscriptions, often facing complex hurdles that feel like escaping a high-security prison. These tactics, which include endless confirmation screens and limited representative availability, contribute to the feeling of legalized corruption. While these practices feel like being scammed in broad daylight, recent legal changes have made it harder for regulators to intervene and protect the public.
