11 Sep 08 Gisol’s “Money Back Guarantee” has gone
Gisol’s famous non-existant 30 Day Money Back Guarantee is no longer advertised on their website. At some point this year, their highly trained graphic artist (or a 3 year old) has changed their front page. In fact, it has changed a couple of times over the last couple of years. Using the Internet Archive “Wayback Machine” I managed to get some screen shots:

15 Aug 08 Please contact LA County District Attorney
The following has been posted on Raoul’s site:
Jim says:
If you have been scammed by GISOL please call the CA district attorney Robert Jackson at 213-580-3324. Robert told me that because GISOL has been using several addresses that they were having trouble finding jurisdiction on the matter. One DA needs as many complaints as we can get him. Please call and tell him your information.
Thanks

Previous to this, they used… [ ... ]
