## Resource

Cash App is paying $45 million nationwide after being caught failing to protect users from scams — Vermont’s share: $1.3 million. The state helped lead the investigation, which found the app ignored proper user screening and lacked basic customer support, like a 24/7 hotline. Now, Cash App must reimburse victims and improve fraud protections — a wake-up call for digital finance platforms to prioritize real user safety, not just profits.
