Home Buyer Firm Sends Texts to Numbers on DNC Registry, Alleges Class Action

Alex Inskeep listed his cellphone number on the national do not call registry in January 2012, yet in December 2023 and continuing through the present, he began receiving text messages on his phone from the Arizona Property Group, offering him cash to sell his home, said his Telephone Consumer Protection Act class action Wednesday (docket 2:24-cv-01478) in U.S. District Court for Arizona. The Phoenix resident isn’t and wasn’t selling his home, and was confused as to why he was even receiving such messages, said the complaint. He alleges the company sent him at least three telemarketing text messages in 2023 and 2024, it said. Inskeep didn’t give the company prior express consent to send text messages to his cellphone number, it said. The plaintiff “suffered actual harm as a result of the text messages at issue in that he suffered an invasion of privacy, an intrusion into his life, and a private nuisance,” it said. The defendant knew, or should have known, that Inskeep listed his cellphone number with the DNC registry, it said.
