November 2015: A class-action lawsuit was filed against NAC Marketing Company, a marketer of subscriptions for products that claim to boost men’s testosterone. According to the complaint, the company fails to adequately present the terms of its automatic renewal and continuous service offers (i.e., monthly subscriptions for products such as Ageless Male, a testosterone supplement) and, as a result, charged consumers without their consent. (Lopez et al v. NAC Marketing Company, LLC and Does 1-10, Case No. 15-cv-2522, S. D. CA.)
