Largest litigated amount ever obtained by FTC in latest ruling by U.S. District Court of Nevada

A U.S. District Court Judge in Nevada ruled in favor of the FTC, imposing a record $1.3 billion judgment against AMG Services Inc. owned by Scott A. Tucker.  The court found AMG Services misled consumers about a one-time servicing fee and the actual cost of the loan.  Instead of charging a one-time servicing fee, AMG Services would make several withdrawals from consumer bank accounts and then charge a financing fee for every withdrawal.  AMG Services Inc., as well as any of Tucker’s businesses, are prohibited from providing any consumer lending services.
