I received an e-mail today pointing me to a thread on the Digital Point forum (since removed from the forum for some reason) with the title, “Azoogle settles for $1mm.”

That post refers to a news release, Attorney General McCollum Unveils New Cyberfraud Task Force

Attorney General Bill McCollum today unveiled a sophisticated team to combat internet-related fraud and simultaneously announced the first agreement reached by the newly-created CyberFraud Task Force. The task force, which takes action against companies who defraud consumers online, is part of the Attorney General’s efforts to make the internet safer for Florida consumers. Housed in the Attorney General’s Economic Crimes Division, the task force today reached a $1 million agreement with internet marketer Azoogle (Azoogleads US Inc.), a New York company that creates and manages internet marketing of cell phone products.

The agreement with Azoogle is in regards to Case No. L07-3-1044 from March 2007.

    Thats a bargain. 1MM is a drop in the bucket compared to what they made JUST of the ‘free’ ads, let alone the ringtones industry as a whole.

    It’s a bargain for Alex and Joe, I bet they are popping the champagne as we speak.
