Excerpt:
"The makers of the "Girls Gone Wild" video series enrolled consumers who ordered their products into a continuity program without their consent, the Federal Trade Commission charged yesterday.
Mantra Films and its founder, Joe Francis, entered consumers who responded to its Internet and late-night DRTV ads into a program that automatically sent them additional videos each month, the FTC said. Consumers did not know they had been entered, and Mantra's ads failed to explain the continuity program and inform consumers that they had to take action to cancel the shipments, according to the agency.
The FTC said it would seek $11,000 per violation and that Mantra and Francis had been engaged in the deceptive continuity program since December 2000. The case is being heard in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles. "
