ADT agreed to pay slightly more than $2 million



The FTC on Wednesday announced multimillion-dollar penalties against three
companies -- lender Ameriquest Mortgage Co., adjustable bed seller
Craftmatic Industries Inc., and home alarm firm ADT Security Services -- for
violations of the Do Not Call list rules.

ADT agreed to pay slightly more than $2 million to settle charges that two
of its authorized dealers -- Alarm King and Direct Security Services --
placed telemarketing calls to consumers on the (do not call) list. While ADT
did not place the calls, the FTC held it responsible for the marketing
tactics of its affiliates.
