HGH pill spammers forced to return $3.7 million.

"A U.S. district court has ordered key players in an international spam ring to give up $3.7 million they made by sending out illegal email messages pitching bogus Hoodia weight-loss products and a "human growth hormone" pill they claimed reversed the aging process.

In a Federal Trade Commission (FTC) law enforcement action, the court found that the five defendants, located in Canada and St. Kitts, violated the FTC Act and CAN-SPAM Act by participating in the spam operation. The court order bars the defendants from violating the CAN-SPAM Act and from making false or unsubstantiated claims about the health benefits of any food, drug, or dietary supplement."
