False Advertising, with the intent to fool/mislead thousands of people with promised earning's in order to steal many thousands of dollars from them. The numbers in the informercial do not add up, The vitamin itself retails for $39.95 plus $8.65 s h for a 30-day supply. Twenty purchases would add up to about $900.
Can Don Lapre afford to pay out $1000 to all of the independent advertisers for the priviledge of only collecting $100? (much of must cover his expenses). Is he banking on most people making fewer sales that would enable him to collect more money that he would pay in commissions?
(2) Stealing the independent advertisers sales: After spending thousands of dollars in advertising/promotion in magazine/newspaper, radio slots, tv ads, handing out fliers and business cards, and bringing thousands of people to the web site to buy the vitamins, we do nothing but lose all of our money and is left wondering where all of our earning's from all of our sales went.
I lost over $100,000 in all of my earning's from the people that went to the site to buy the vitamins and in return the company kept all of our earned profits/money from all of our sales.
(3) Consumer Fraud-lieing and ripping off customers. Don Lapre, states that while living in a tiny one-bedroom apartment, "he became a millionaire by placing hundreds of tiny classified ads" in newspapers and he spent millions of dollars in research in coming up with the greatest vitamin in the world. How can this be, when Donald Lapre has a history of prior chapter 7 and chapter 11 bankruptcy filing's?
(4) Refusal of promised refunds according to the companies refund policy.
(5) Missrepresentation-dissatisfaction with the program. We was misrepresented during the sale and earnung's turned out to be not as represented and significant and additional thing's are reportedly told to consumers up front
(6) Deceptive act or practice and or scamming. (7) Posting false reports to accounts to mislead clients.
