Solar Company Attyx Is Accused of a $275 Million Fraud Against Homeowners — New York’s AG and a Federal Class Action Are Both Taking It to Court

A home solar company called Attyx — formerly operating as SUNco — is facing two major legal actions alleging it ran a massive fraud scheme targeting low-income homeowners and seniors across six states: New York, New Jersey, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Hawaii.

New York Attorney General Letitia James filed suit against the company in March 2026, according to the AG’s office. A separate federal class action was filed April 27, 2026, in the Eastern District of New York, according to ClassAction.org.

If you signed any contract with Attyx or SUNco for solar panels or home repairs — or if you are now making loan payments to Solar Mosaic, WebBank, or Service Finance for work Attyx arranged — you should read this.

How the Alleged Scheme Worked

According to both the AG lawsuit and the private class action, Attyx’s sales representatives targeted homeowners in lower-income communities, knocking on doors and making promises about government energy incentive programs that would pay for the work — meaning homeowners would owe nothing out of pocket.

In reality, the lawsuits allege, the paperwork homeowners signed were not program applications. They were loan contracts — often for tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars — with third-party lenders including Solar Mosaic LLC, WebBank, and Service Finance Company LLC. All three lenders are named as defendants in both actions.

According to the AG’s lawsuit, the lenders paid Attyx the loan proceeds immediately after the contracts were signed. Attyx would then complete little or none of the promised work — leaving homeowners stuck with large monthly loan payments they didn’t know they had agreed to, for services they either received poorly or not at all.

The New York AG’s office received more than 200 consumer complaints about Attyx. According to PV Magazine, the estimated value of the alleged fraud in New York alone is approximately $275 million.

All defendants — Attyx, its co-CEOs, Solar Mosaic, WebBank, and Service Finance — deny the allegations. No court has made a finding of wrongdoing.

Who May Have Been Affected

According to the lawsuits, the alleged scheme targeted homeowners in these six states:

You may want to look into your situation if:

• A salesperson from Attyx or SUNco came to your door and offered solar panels, roof repairs, or home improvements
• You were told the cost would be covered by a government program, incentive, or rebate
• You later discovered you had signed a loan contract — with Solar Mosaic, WebBank, Service Finance, or another lender — that you did not know was a loan
• You are now making monthly payments for work that was never done or done poorly

If you are outside these six states, this particular case does not cover you. You can still use the form below if you have a different legal matter.

What the AG Lawsuit Is Seeking

The New York AG’s lawsuit asks the court to:

• Stop Attyx from continuing its sales practices
• Cancel the loan contracts for consumers who were deceived
• Require Attyx and the lenders to repay homeowners
• Impose civil penalties on the company

The AG’s office has directed affected New Yorkers to file complaints at ag.ny.gov. New Yorkers may also be eligible for legal assistance through The Legal Aid Society at legalaidnyc.org.

The Federal Class Action

The private class action — filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York on April 27, 2026 — seeks to represent all homeowners across the six affected states who entered into contracts with Attyx, according to ClassAction.org. The case is in early litigation.

If you are in one of those states and dealt with Attyx, you may be in the class, but no settlement has been reached and no fund exists at this time. If the case settles, class members in the six covered states will be notified through the court process.

What to Do If You Signed a Contract With Attyx

Collect everything

Any paperwork Attyx gave you, the loan documents from Solar Mosaic, WebBank, or Service Finance, and records of any payments you have made. The more documentation you can gather, the better.

Do not stop making loan payments without legal advice

Stopping payments could affect your credit. Consult with an attorney before making any changes to how you handle these loans.

File a complaint with your state
