I Got A Check In The Mail

Tweet

Many many years ago I was approached by a friend of mine who was selling Herbalife products. She talked me into trying it. I did and ended up losing about 30 pounds which I needed to do. And my headaches went away. All of them. Even the migraines. Pretty amazing. I actually loved the products but they were cost prohibitive, very expensive in my opinion. I was so impressed with the product I decided to go into business with her and sell Herbalife as well. We did ok but it wasn't the mind blowing business that the powers that be at Herbalife made it out to be. And Herbalife was constantly trying to talk us into purchasing more and more of their products to sell, so we would have them on hand for our customers and they would not have to wait. As many of you can imagine that didn't work out to well and we eventually got stuck with many many items we could not sell. We also eventually quit selling it. Yesterday in the mail I got a letter from the Federal Trade Commission. Apparently they filed a lawsuit against Herbalife for encouraging distributors to buy products they couldn't possibly sell and misled people about how much they could make. To settle the lawsuit Herbalife agreed to pay 200 million dollars to provide refunds. Attached to the letter was a check for over 600 dollars. I was stunned I hadn't even heard about the lawsuit. I don't know what Herbalife is doing at this time or if they are even in business anymore. I am thinking they are not. I called my friend and yes she has received a check as well. It doesn't make up for our losses, not quite anyway but it was welcomed. I almost threw that letter away without opening it, I thought it was junk, my hubby said no open it and I'm so glad I did. Here is another odd thing, in the letter it says to please cash this check by March 10, 2017, after this date the check could bounce. You can be sure I went to the bank right away and cashed that check.
