State Wins BioPerformance Injunction

State Wins Injunction Against "Gas Pill" Maker

(June 2, 2006)-Texas won a temporary injunction Thursday against BioPerformance, which orders the company to stop marketing its so-called "gas pill" as a product that improves gas mileage.

The court also barred the defendants from access to millions of dollars that Attorney General Greg Abbott says were "wrongly diverted for personal uses from this illegal online pyramid."

"Today marks a victory on behalf of thousands of consumers around the country who were defrauded by BioPerformance and its owners," Abbott said.

"This company and its owners spent a lot of time boosting the confidence of their clients' buying power and did nothing to boost gas mileage or performance of vehicles, as they falsely claimed these gas pills would do," he said.

Abbott filed suit last month against Texas-based Bioperformance, Inc. to stop sales of the green ball marketed as a "gas pill" that supposedly increases mileage when dropped into a vehicle's fuel tank.

Abbot says the pill is worthless and part of what he says is an illegal pyramid scheme.
