On November 8, 2018, the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") announced that Moneygram "has agreed to pay $125 million to settle allegations that the company failed to take steps required under a 2009 Federal Trade Commission order to crack down on fraudulent money transfers that cost U.S. consumers millions of dollars." The settlement also "resolves allegations that MoneyGram also violated a separate 2012 deferred prosecution agreement with the Department of Justice." "The FTC alleges that MoneyGram was aware for years of the high levels of fraud and suspicious activities involving certain agents, including large chain agents."

On this news, MoneyGram stock fell $2.20 per share, or over 49%, from its previous closing price to close at $2.27 per share on November 9, 2018, damaging investors.
