Facebook has agreed to settle claims with a Philadelphia-based tattoo artist, who sued the company for allegedly failing to stop alleged scammers from using photos of her in weight loss ads.
According to an order from the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, the parties in Oreto v. Facebook have recently agreed to settle the case. The one-page order, entered Monday, did not disclose anything about the settlement, but said the case should be dismissed because of the agreement.
A spokeswoman for Facebook declined to comment, and West Chester attorney Robert Axenfeld, who is representing plaintiff Kristel Oreto, did not return a request for comment.
