FTC Takes Action Against International Scam Targeting Consumers with Fake "Free Trials" and Unauthorized Charges
The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) recently secured a court order halting an international online scam that falsely marketed “free trial” offers for personal care products and dietary supplements.

This case highlights not only the deceptive marketing tactics but also the elaborate methods used by the perpetrators to conceal their fraudulent activities.
