California Man Sues Penis-Enlargment Firms

Posted by timothy on from the bravely-facing-ridicule dept.

Ronin writes "The DenverPost reports that 'A California man on Thursday sued a slew of international companies, including a Greeley distributor, alleging the penis-enlargement products they market and distribute do not work.' One of the highlights of the article is when the man says "I was wondering for a long time why no one has gotten around to suing these penis-enlargement guys, because it seems like a pretty blatant ... fraud." Probably cause people are too embarrased to say they've tried it."

    These things prey on people's desperation and feelings of inadequacy. I mean really, even a tiny dude can score if his head game is good.

      I think that the most obvious reason to believe that they don't work is the fact that you don't see them in every store in the USA. Let's face it... if they worked, they'd probably be selling better than crack.

      It is about time someone went after spammers for false advertisement. If the spammers want to claim that spam is a legit method of marketing than thay can be subject to the same rules and regulations as any other advratisement media.

      Saying Java is nice because it works on all OS's is like saying that anal sex is nice because it works on all genders.

    It may be hard to track down the spammers advertising it (and prove a link between them and the retailer) but it is hell-of-easy tracking down the retailer when they accept payments on Visa/Mastercard.
