VIOLATIONS OF THE FTC ACT

14. Section Sea) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.c. § 45(a), prohibits "unfair or deceptive acts

or practices in or affecting commerce." Misrepresentations or omissions of material fact

constitute deceptive acts or practices prohibited by Section 5(a) of the FTC Act.

15. Section 12(a) of the FTC Ac,t, 15 U.S .c. § 52(a), prohibits the dissemination of

any false adveltisement in or affecting commerce for the purpose of inducing, or which is likely

to induce, the purchase of food , drugs, devices, services, or cosmetics. For the purposes of

Section 12 of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.c. § 52, Defendant's Wal-born products are either "food" or

"drugs" as defined inSection 15(b) and (c) of the FTC Act, 15U.S.C. § 55(b), (e).

Page 8 of 1 J

Case 1:10-cv-01813 Document 1 Fi led 03/23/10 of 11

16. Through the means described in Paragraph 13, including the statements and

depictions contained in the advertisements attached as Exhibits A through F, among others,

Defendant has represented, directly or indirectly, expressly or by implication, that Wal-bom:

a. Reduces the risk of or prevents colds and flu;

b. Protects against or helps fight germs;

c. Protects against colds and tlu in crowded places, such as schools, offices,

theaters, airplanes, restaurants, and health clubs;

d. Reduces the severity or dm-ation of colds and flu ; and

e. Boosts tlle body's inlmune system, thereby providing protection against

cold and flu viruses.

17. The representations set f0l1h in Paragraph 16 were not substantiated at the time

tlte representations were made.

18. Therefore, the representations set fOlih in Paragraph 16 constitute deceptive acts

or practices, and the making of false advertisements, in or affecting commerce, in violation of

Sections 5(a) and 12 of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.c. §§ 45(a) and 52.

CONSUMER INJURY

19. Consumers have suffered and will continue to suffer substantial injury as a result

of Defendant's violations of the FTC Act. In addition, Defendant has beenllnjustly enriched as a

result of its unlawful acts or practices. Absent injunctive relief by this Court, Defendant is likely

to continue to injure consumers, reap unjust eruichment, and harm the public interest.

TillS COURT'S POWER TO GRANT RELIEF

20. Section 13(b) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 53(b), empowers this Court to grant

injunctive and such other relief as the Court may deem appropriate to halt and redress violations

Page 9 of 11


of the FTC Act. The Court, in the exercise of its equitable jurisdiction, may award ancillary

l'elief, including rescission or refonnation of contracts, restitution, the refund of monies paid,

and the disgorgement of ill-gotten monies, to prevent and remedy any violation of any provision

of law enforced by the FTC.

PRA YER FOR RELIEF

Wherefore, Plaintiff FTC, pursuant to Section 13(b) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.c. § 53(b),

and the Court' s own equitable powers, requests that tbe Court:

A. Enter a pennanent injunction to prevent future violations of the FTC Act by

Defendant;

B . Award such relief as the Court finds necessary to redress injury to consumers

resulting from Defendant's violations of the FTC Act, including but not limited to, rescission or

refonnation of contracts, restitution, the refund of monies paid, and the disgorgemeni of ill

gotten monies; and

Page 10 of II

Case 1 :10-cv-01813 Document 1 Filed 03/23/10 of 11

C. Award Plaintiff the costs of bringing this action, as well as such other and

additional relief as the Court may determine to be just and proper.
