Enzyte maker gets serious jail time

Finally at least one of these scumbags gets some real jail time for bilking the gullible...

...and no more "Smiling Bob" commercials either (I hope).

CINCINNATI (AP) — A business owner convicted of defrauding customers seeking male sexual enhancement products and a variety of herbal supplements was sentenced Wednesday to 25 years in prison.

Steve Warshak, 42, founder of Berkeley Premium Nutraceuticals, also was ordered to pay $93,000 in fines. He was convicted in February on 93 counts of conspiracy, fraud and money laundering.

Is Enzyte the one with that annoying midnight "Sex Talk" commercial at 3 AM?

Guess he's gonna get to see how well his product worked first hand... or... well... first 'something'

I read another article in the Wall Street Journal where the company has to pay $500,000 back to customers too.

The best part of the Enzyte commercials are the customer interviews... They have all these people giving firsthand accounts of Enzyte use and effects, and EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM looks like the kind of person you'd find at a stripclub at 10am, or passed out at the gate of a trailer community clutching a bottle of Old Turkey in one hand and a tattered 1973 issue of Playboy in the other.
