Privacy Bulletin: SHEIN SMS Violates Do-Not-Call Directive, Faces Class Action Lawsuit

On July 12, 2025, a class action lawsuit was filed against SHEIN for allegedly violating the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) by sending marketing text messages to numbers listed on the National Do-Not-Call Registry without prior consent. The plaintiff, whose number was registered in April 2025, continued receiving promotional texts in June, well past the required 31-day buffer.
