FTC, thanks for the check

Received a check in the mail today drawn on the bank account of ConsumerInfo.com Credit Fund in the amount of $58.19.

From the FTC press release:

Consumerinfo.com, Inc., doing business as Experian Consumer Direct, has settled Federal Trade Commission charges that it deceptively marketed “free credit reports” by not adequately disclosing that consumers automatically would be signed up for a credit report monitoring service and charged $79.95 if they didn’t cancel within 30 days, in violation of federal law.

I am going to buy five shares of Rambus.
