Steven A. Conner filed a complaint on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated April 11 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against Optum360, alleging the company sent him unwanted fax advertisements.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that, in October 2015, he sustained damages from receiving unsolicited fax advertisements. The plaintiff holds Optum360 responsible because the defendant allegedly sent faxes to advertise its services.
