What's the Puff Bar Disposable Electronic Cigarettes Class Action Lawsuit?
The class action lawsuit against Evo Brands, the maker of Puff Bar e-cigarettes, alleges that the company intentionally marketed the disposable e-cigarettes toward young people while misrepresenting their addictive nature and the fact that the products could not be sold legally to anyone under 21.
The class action lawsuit alleges that Puff Bar's marketing as "tobacco-free" is misleading, causing consumers to believe the products are safer than traditional tobacco-based nicotine products. Additionally, the allegation in the lawsuit is that the labeling of "5% tobacco-free nicotine" or similar phrasing allegedly leads consumers and young people to underestimate the product's nicotine content and addictiveness, leading to dependency and financial predation.
