Affiliates Reach FTC Settlement, Forced to Shut Down Flogs

The FTC has reached a settlement with several floggers who were charged by the FTC with creating fake news sites to promote Acai Berry  products. This is one of a long line of lawsuits the FTC has taken against floggers, taking away their profits and forcing them to stop deceptive marketing. All the sites promised fast weightloss under the guise of a  news site, but the FTC called it a scam.

“We have ongoing efforts to aggressively challenge deceptive advertisements over the Internet like the fake news sites attacked here, and our enforcement actions can potentially reach anyone in the chain between a seller and the consumer,” said Steven Wernikoff, an FTC attorney in Chicago.

Included in the judgements are several well-known super-affiliates, who have been forced to return all the profits from their business.
