Redbull to pay $10 or give you free energy drink

[Godnick]

If you have purchased Redbull since 2002, you have the opportunity to claim either $10 or a free Redbull energy drink.

"The settlement came out of a class-action suit led by plaintiff Benjamin Careathers, who claimed that the beverage provides a caffeine buzz and no vaunted properties the brand had ascribed to taurine and guarana.

Red Bull is expected to pay more than $13 million and put $6.5 million in a settlement fund this week"

Technically, it's a 10$ check or 15$ in credit. Also the payments go out once there's a settlement, which won't happen until May 10th next year, so big woop on this. :/

They should probably have just made a commercial apologizing and telling people about the offer, I bet it would gain a lot of good publicity.

Generally speaking false advertising is not actually illegal. I wonder what laws they are using for this.
