Systemax Inc. (NYSE: SYX) announced that a complaint was filed today by the Florida Attorney General (AG) against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries in the Circuit Court of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit, in Miami-Dade County, Florida. The complaint relates to rebate processing activities conducted by OnRebate Inc, primarily during 2005-early 2007.

A separate class action lawsuit making similar allegations was filed in federal court in 2007. On August 31, 2009 the U.S District Court for the Southern District of Florida issued a final order of dismissal of that case.

A Company spokesperson stated, “We are pleased that we prevailed in federal court in the Vukson matter. OnRebate processed and paid over 2 million individual rebates. While there were relatively few customer complaints, and we regret any of them, we believe all customers who were entitled to rebates did receive them. The Company denies the allegations in the Florida AG complaint and will vigorously defend itself and its subsidiaries.”
