An independent company actually sent the messages on behalf of Papa Johns. Do you think that Papa Johns is liable for these messages? Or is the third party company who actually sent the messages liable??

Papa Annoying
Papa Johns has been taken to court recently by individuals who are sick and tire of receiving illegal text messages from the country's favorite fast food pizza chain. Apparently, Papa John's has been accused of sending over 500,000 unwanted messages to customers who had recently frequented their stores. Some individuals attested to receiving chains of 15 messages even in the middle of the night. Plaintiffs are asking for up to $1,500 per message from Papa Johns.

It sounds very strange, but if it is true Papa Johns is definitely liable for it!
ReplyDeleteI believe the third party is liable for these message, and that they would have to pay the $1,500 per message.
ReplyDeleteI think this will end up hurting Papa John's. I know I personally hate receiving messages like that which in my opinion are "Spam" and is just annoying, especially for those who received the messages in the middle of the night. I think this comes down too if Papa John's was aware of the sending of text mesasges and if they did know about it then Papa John's and the third party who actually sent the messages are equally held liable.
