I got $20 in the mail and i dont know why?
Anyone know anything about the Federal Trade Commission VS. Suntasia marketing? They sent me a letter about some kinda telemarketing scam. The FTC sued suntasia and won and is returning peoples money. I never paid crap to anyone. Heres the link. I actually couldnt scroll down on the page for some reason. www.ftc.gov./opa/2009/01/suntasia.shtm ...What the?

The FTC site read as the company pulled money from people for not saying "I don't want this" or failure to notify ( negative option marketing ).
Seems like this could be how they got the account info, to do the funds withdrawal from.
Might want to check this against the full list, you should have been notified about the case if you were part of it.
What is on the check stub ?

Go back and check your bank account(s) and credit cards for charges that are monthly reoccurring. Might have to go back pretty far with this ( some times it can take 3 years to file a case ).
You can take a look at the documents to try to find the 16 names used by them.
Stipulated Order for Permanent Injunction and Final Judgment:

I coppied the document into word pad, then copied this paragrapth to here for you. There's the URL, and a phone number you can call.
Copies of the stipulated final judgments are available from the FTC's Web site at http://www.ftc.gov and also from the FTC's Consumer Response Center, Room 130, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC 20580. The Federal Trade Commission works for consumers to prevent fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair business practices and to provide information to help spot, stop, and avoid them. To file a complaint in English or Spanish, visit the FTC’s online Complaint Assistant or call 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357). The FTC enters complaints into Consumer Sentinel, a secure, online database available to more than 1,500 civil and criminal law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and abroad. The FTC’s Web site provides free information on a variety of consumer topics.

This goes back clear from 1999 to 2007.I didnt graduate until 2002. I called the number 18004275290. There was a list of frequently asked questions i listened to all of those. It said the amount paid was approximate or equal to what was debited from my account.

At some point you sign a form for a class action law suit against a company for weight loss products or bulk building products. The Federal trade commission made them return a portion of the money, as it appears.

read all of the fine print. even what is on the back of the check.
some scam companies "hand out" money and when you endorse it and cash it you signed up for something. then they charge you per month.
this is probably legit but it's always better to be safe than sorry.
