## Resource

Block, the company behind Cash App, is paying $45 million to 46 states to settle fraud protection claims, admitting to past shortcomings in security and customer support — including misleading advertising and poor account verification — while also pledging major upgrades like live customer service to prevent future scams and rebuild user trust. Separately, Washington state is pursuing its own $20 million settlement over alleged involvement in fraudulent unemployment payments during the pandemic, which Block denies.
