币界网报道：Walmart has been ordered to pay $10 million in penalties after federal regulators found the retail giant failed to prevent scammers from exploiting its money transfer services. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) investigation revealed Walmart allegedly ignored warning signs while fraudsters used its financial services to steal millions from customers through schemes like fake prize notifications and relative-in-distress scams. The CFPB stated Walmart violated consumer protection laws by not properly training staff or implementing adequate anti-fraud measures despite processing over $100 billion in transfers annually. As part of the settlement, Walmart must enhance fraud detection, improve employee training, and pay $10 million into the CFPB's victim relief fund. This marks one of the largest penalties ever imposed on a money transfer provider for consumer protection violations. Walmart has stated it will appeal the decision, claiming it already maintains strong fraud prevention protocols.
