BP Settlement Checks are Going to More than 1M Oregonians

Attorney General and Oregon Consumer Justice let recipients know checks are legitimate

SALEM — You may have already received it. Over the next few weeks, more than 1 million Oregonians who used a debit card to buy gas at Oregon ARCO and am/pm gas stations between Jan. 1, 2011, and Aug. 30, 2013, will receive a check in the mail for $94.42. The nonprofit organization Oregon Consumer Justice, in partnership with Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum of the Oregon Department of Justice, wants the public to know that the checks are not a scam. They are a settlement from a class action lawsuit against BP.
