The Defunct Diet Center Chain and Oregon Franchise Agree to Pay $200,000.

Attorney General John Kroger announced a settlement that will provide up to $200,000 for Oregon consumers who bought services and products from a now-defunct diet center chain.

"Misleading Oregon consumers is not acceptable," said Attorney General Kroger.

Consumers who believe they are due refunds from LA Weight Loss should contact the Attorney General's hot line: 877-877-9392 or fill out a refund form on the Oregon Department of Justice's website: http://www.doj.state.or.us/releases/pdf/lawl.pdf

That's great news, but the sad thing is that $200,000 probably doesn't begin to scratch the surface of what is owed to customers.
