Relacore class action settlement

Carter-Reed Company LLC and other defendants have agreed to settle a class action lawsuit related to allegedly misleading labeling and advertising of Relacore products. If you purchased Relacore products since Jan. 1, 2000, you may be entitled to a cash payment from the class action settlement.

The Relacore class action lawsuit alleged the defendants made false and misleading statements in their advertising and labeling of Relacore products, in violation of the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act and other laws.

Relacore was marketed as a belly-fat reduction and weight loss supplement that reduced anxiety and improved mood.  However, according to the Relacore class action lawsuit, there is no scientific proof that the product has the advertised benefits.

The defendants deny any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the Relacore class action lawsuit to avoid the expense and risk of trial.

Who’s Eligible

You are a Class Member of the Relacore settlement if you purchased Relacore, Relacore Extra, Relacore PM and/or the Relacore System in the United States for personal use (not for resale) between Jan. 1, 2000 and Nov. 10, 2014.

Potential Award

Up to $28.

Class Members who submit valid and timely claims will be eligible to receive $14 per bottle purchased during the Class Period, up to a maximum of two bottles per household.

Proof of Purchase

None required. However, Class Members who do not provide a valid receipt or credit card statement showing that they purchased the Relacore products during the Class Period must provide a declaration saying, under the penalty of perjury, that they purchased the Relacore products.

  1. Roger says:

    ?! Why is the court allowing the members of the damaged class action to incur more costs. They are making it more difficult and likely that the form will be not returned, by not including a postage paid envelope into which place the form.

  2. Dude says:

    I wonder if they are going to compare what we put on the form to the original online claim?

  3. shelby says:

    I received the same letter .I’m gonna fill it out and return it. We’ll see if they pay it.

  4. Roger says:

    ?Monitor.- Why is the court allowing this, since the identical information was provided on-line and certified to? What happens if one does not return the form? Difficult to remember how many were purchased and from what store.Thanks

  5. christine says:

    i got the letter too. are you guys going to fill it out and send it? gosh what a waste of papers. we already filled this out online

  6. jill says:

    I got the same letter. Everyone who file a claim probably got one

  7. Tashauna Gordon says:

    Got the same letter, filled it out and dropping it in the mail tomorrow.

  8. Jack says:

    Same here, got the letter today. Bought the stuff in about 2007, I believe! Thankfully, I still have an empty bottle. Expiration date is 2009. I assume they are just trying to minimize their outlay.

  9. Morty says:

    I got a letter today wanting more information. They wanted to know how many bottles I bought, where at and when. They also wanted a signature. So I am going to say this is a delay tactic and trying to weed out someone who might not use their signature as a scare tactic. Figuring they might eliminate some fraudulent applications.

    1. Greg says:

      I got that letter today too. I signed it to the best of my ability and mailed it back today,but your right they probably just want to be sure its a valid claim. I bought so many of these bottles years ago for my wife and I and of course dont have any reciepts but still signed and returned…..No worries just send it back..

  10. beAn says:

    SO WHAT HAPPEN IN COURT TODAY?

    1. Pam W. says:

      They met but couldn’t make a decision.
