FTC Says Refunds For Razer's False N95 Face Masks Are Going Out Now
Full refunds are now available to people who purchased a falsely advertised N95 face mask from Razer. The US Federal Trade Commission announced that checks and PayPal payments are on their way to 6,764 customers of the futuristic-looking accessory.
In May 2024, the FTC announced that a settlement was reached with Razer for more than $1 million. The fine occurred because Razer claimed its face mask met N95 requirements, even though it was never submitted for certification to test whether it removed 95% of airborne particles, per the FTC.
In the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, Razer revealed the N95 face mask with RGB lighting and voice amplification at CES in January 2021. The Razer Zephyr face mask eventually launched in October 2021 for $100. However, just months later in January 2022, Razer removed the N95 claims about the face mask.
