Facebook owner Meta is the subject of separate legal action from mining billionaire Andrew Forrest and the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission over cryptocurrency scams. Forrest launched a private criminal case against Meta in February for allegedly failing to stop cryptocurrency investment scams that used his name and image, while the ACCC’s case against Meta allegeds it aided or abetted scammers by hosting their fake ads. Meta’s efforts to supress documents from the ACCC’s case against it have run into problems, but it has made a renewed attempt to delay proceedings in the Federal Court.
