FTC Sues to Stop Spam Touting Bogus Weight Loss and Anti-Aging Products
Last week, the Federal Trade Commission filed suit against several individuals in an attempt to Block Spam touting weight loss and anti aging remedies. The suit alleges that Bruce Parker and Lisa Kimsey, doing business as Spear Systems Inc, and Xavier Ratelle, doing business as eHealthylife.com, sent spam hawking Hoodia and Human Growth Hormone produces, falsely claiming they promoted weight loss and reversed the effects of aging. The FTC says the group sent out over 175,000 spam messages. The suit is the first filed under the U.S. Safe Web Act, passed by Congress last year in response to the increased problems of cyber crime and spam.
