What is Consumer Fraud?

Consumer fraud refers to deceptive, unfair, or false business practices used by companies to induce consumers to purchase products or services. This type of fraud can involve misleading advertisements, fraudulent representations of products or services, or concealing important information that affects consumer decisions.

Examples of Consumer Fraud Cases

Consumer fraud occurs when a person suffers a financial loss due to deceptive, unfair, or misleading business practices. This can cover a wide range of fraudulent activities. Some examples of this type of fraud include:

• Failure to provide services or products that have been paid for.
• Providing inaccurate information to customers or failing to disclose important information.
• Misrepresenting services or qualifications.

What is a Consumer Fraud Class Action?

A consumer fraud class action is a legal action brought by one or more individuals on behalf of a larger group who have suffered similar harm or losses due to deceptive practices by the same company or entity. This type of lawsuit is effective in situations where the financial damage per individual might be too small to justify separate lawsuits, such as antitrust cases. In a class action, the court allows the group—no matter how large—to be represented collectively by a member of the group (the class representative), which makes legal action economically feasible and judicially efficient.

These class actions not only aim to recover financial losses for the affected consumers but also serve to hold the offending businesses accountable, potentially leading to changes in corporate behavior and practices to prevent future fraud.

Many have heard the phrase, “let the buyer beware,” but this offers little relief to a consumer.  The good news is this is not the current law in New Jersey. It is unlawful when companies commit any unconscionable commercial practice, deception, fraud, or misrepresentation. The same is true if they knowingly conceal, suppress, or omit any material fact. When these acts or omissions occur in connection with the sale of any merchandise, they may violate the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act, and you may be entitled to compensation.
