Los Angeles Internet Class Action Lawsuit Attorney
The growth of business Web sites and pay-per-click advertising on the Internet has been matched by a growth in fraudulent activities. Two examples are click fraud and domain name highjacking. If you are a victim of Internet fraud, contact me for information about your options. You may be entitled to seek compensation through a class action lawsuit.
I'm Erik Syverson, a lawyer focusing on Internet law. While I am located in Los Angeles, I represent businesses across the United States who are victims of click fraud, domain highjacking and other types of Internet fraud.
Pay-Per-Click Fraud
Many businesses promote their Web sites through expensive pay-per-click advertising campaigns. However, how many of those clicks you pay for are valid?
Unscrupulous Web site owners use robots or boiler rooms in third world countries where people are paid pennies to repeatedly click on ads hosted on the internet. Many pay-per-click programs do little to differentiate between valid and fraudulent clicks, since they get paid whether the click is valid or not.
Domain Name Highjacking
Renewing your domain name is one of the least expensive costs of doing business on the Internet. Yet many businesses lose their domain names because their Internet registrar failed to alert them when their domain was expiring or a competitor steals the domain. The registrar then takes over the domain name and sells it for a big profit ¾ an activity known as domain highjacking.
Why File a Class Action Lawsuit
If you are a victim of click fraud or domain name highjacking, the dollar value of your claim does not justify the cost of filing a legal claim on your own. However, a class action lawsuit allows many people who have been similarly harmed to combine their claims into one lawsuit.
Class action lawsuits allow you to obtain justice and hold wrongdoers accountable.
