A BROCHURE IN THE SUNDAY PAPER PROMISED WONDERFUL WEIGHT LOSS RESULTS. THEY GUARANTEED "IF YOU DON'T HAVE MORE ENERGY AND LOSE WEIGHT AS PROMISED, JUST RETURN THE UNUSED PORTION OR EMPTY BOTTLE, AND YOUR PURCHASE PRICE WILL BE PROMPTLY REFUNDED." I DIDN'T LOSE A POUND AND ASKED FOR MY MONEY BACK. NO REPLY. I WROTE A SECOND TIME WITHOUT AN ANSWER. WHAT ARE MY RECOURSES? COMPLICATING THE ISSUE IS THE FACT THAT THIS IS A CANADIAN CO. THE AMOUNT INVOLVED IS $130.40.

If you used a major credit card you have some recourse. If not, chalk it up as a donation. You did not check on the company, verify the claims made etc. Because the company is a non US company, you have little hope of seeing a penny. You can file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission for false advertising but they may not have jurisdiction if the comapny has no affiliates in the US.
