Persons who receive unordered merchandise in the mail may have a private cause of action and may ask for a consent order from the FTC.
Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)
False
No, a consent order is an FTC order under which the company agrees to stop the disputed practice without necessarily admitting that it violated the law. The question on the other hand refers to people who receive unordered merchandise through the mail who may treat it as a gift. They may keep the merchandise or dispose of it in any manner they see fit without any obligation whatsoever to the sender. Similarly, it is illegal to send a bill for such unordered merchandise or to send dunning letters (letters requesting payments).
