Summary
Amazon’s Prime enrollment tactics are under fire again — this time, the FTC is rolling out automatic refunds of up to $200 per person for unsuspecting shoppers who were tricked into signing up. The original settlement offered just $51, but this revamped deal expands eligibility and streamlines payouts starting October 1st. Those who already received a smaller refund will get an extra $149 by April 2027. Amazon also faces a $1 billion penalty and must overhaul its sign-up and cancellation processes to stop deceptive language that misled customers.
