Update: The website is crashing intermittently. This is likely because this story has picked up a lot of steam and millions of people are simultaneously trying to collect their just-reward.

Quote:The lawsuit was filed by customers who argued they were misled about the product's benefits, including the phrase, "Red Bull gives you wings."
Red Bull recently agreed to pay the money — totaling $13 million — to consumers to settle two consumer class-action lawsuits. Plaintiffs in the cases argued the company's marketing misrepresented the functionality and safety of the company's drinks.
Quote:As it turns out, Red Bull doesn't give you wings, it gives you heartburn, a sugar crash, and compensation for misleading you with advertising.
The class-action suit, filed last year in U.S. District Court of the Southern District of New York alleges that the energy drink manufacturer willfully mislead the public in claiming that its product would increase concentration and physical performance.
The main crux of the argument is that while Red Bull implies that their product is more effective than a cup of coffee at providing "energy" and charges a higher price-per-unit for it, there's not actually any scientific evidence to back that claim up.
From the suit: "Such deceptive conduct and practices mean that [Red Bull's] advertising and marketing is not just 'puffery,' but is instead deceptive and fraudulent and is therefore actionable,"
Of course, per corporate settlement tradition, Red Bull is admitting absolutely no wrongdoing in the case.
In an email to BevNet, the company had this to say: "Red Bull settled the lawsuit to avoid the cost and distraction of litigation. However, Red Bull maintains that its marketing and labeling have always been truthful and accurate, and denies any and all wrongdoing or liability."
