Avanti Skin Renewal The claim of "FREE" was a deception Chicago Illinois

I recieved an email notice to receive a "Free Bottle" of the Avanti Skin renewal by just paying the S&H.  Got the box but never opened it.  Today I got two emails stating that both my products are on the way at the cost of nearly $100 for each.  I called to say that I didn't order or authorize these purchased as I only wanted the Free sample that was promoted. 

When I tried to cancel the order they said I had authorized it as there was an indication in the 'fine print' that once I get this free order I automatically authorize the renewing purchase of this expensive product.  They wouldn't cancel it or allow me to return it, even unopened, as it would be contaminated.  She kept repeating that I had authorized the payment because this was a 14 day trial. 

I completely understand the difference between the concept of trial order and getting something that is advertised as free.  I asked to get the headquarters address to write them about this basic scam but she would not offer any names or addresses.  Their website still says - free bottle - at the top. 

I don't believe that you can say that something is free and then slip in the fine print that you're actually signing up for a automatically refilled order if you don't cancel in 14 days.  Bait and switch.  These people are totally unethical.  I am sure that the Shark Tank mentor (which is supposedly how they got their big push) don't teach people to rip-off customers in this manner.  Probably not where they learned these tactics (but if they did - shame on Shark Tank). 

There seem to be a number of other similar complaints.  This is a total crooked rip off operation.
