Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against Ambit Energy
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Ambit Energy customers represented by national consumer-rights law firm, Hagens Berman, today filed a class-action lawsuit against Ambit alleging that the provider of electricity and natural gas services illegally operates a massive pyramid scheme, in which Ambit uses customers as consultants to market to friends and family, lures consumers to switch energy providers with the promise of lower rates, and causes the rates to increase, according to the complaint.
“Our investigation has shown that not only does Ambit use deceptive tactics to reel in its customers, but it then exploits them for its own gains – calling them ‘consultants’ and developing more pawns in its twisted scheme for higher profits.”
Attorneys representing the class of Ambit customers state that the energy company has defrauded its 13 million customers, growing its revenue from $1 million in 2006
