Face Mask Sellers on eBay Falsely Claim Products are ‘FDA Approved’
TINA.org investigation also finds sellers using the FDA’s logo in violation of the agency’s logo policy.
Buckpower
In January 2014, the plaintiff voluntarily dismissed a class-action lawsuit alleging that T.C.C.D. International misleadingly labels Buckpower, a dietary supplement containing New Zealand Red Deer Antler Velvet. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the supplement has the ability to “increase muscle strength & recovery,” “promote healthy joint function,” “improve[] energy & endurance,” and “boost[] libido” when, in reality, it does not work as advertised. We do not know why the plaintiffs dismissed the complaint. (Clark et al v. T.C.C.D. International, Inc. and Does 1-10, Case No. 13-cv-08140, C. D. CA.).
