Regulators accused Block of misleading customers about FDIC insurance protections, lacking effective fraud-prevention procedures, and failing to investigate unauthorized transactions. A key issue was Cash App's absence of live phone support until 2021, which scammers exploited with fake help lines. The settlement requires Block to build a compliance management system, stop overstating fraud protections, and maintain live phone support for at least 13.5 hours daily. This comes on top of a separate $175 million CFPB penalty from January 2025. The case reflects a broader trend of state regulators stepping in as the CFPB has been scaled back under the Trump administration, with similar scrutiny now directed at Zelle operator Early Warning. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
