Has anyone heard of any company filing a complaint with the FTC or State AGs about receiving a voluminous amount of DSRs (50k+) in an abusive/spam like manner? My company is dealing with this and none of the requests are legitimate current or former customers. Requests are coming from “authorized rep” through third party app.

Have a defensible policy / procedure to handle those cases.

Just set up an auto-reply that directs them to your self-service system or process.

I doubt the FTC/AG would stop it. It's a legitimate exercise of a legal right even if it's automated/sometimes inaccurate.

If they are really all fake, block their sender from sending to your domain.

This is correct. That’s what I’ve done too.

Many thanks in advance.
