Important information
- Additional Info:Note: American Screening has taken steps to respond or resolve BBB complaints.
- Pending Government Action:The following describes a pending government action that has been formally brought by a government agency but has not yet been resolved. We are providing a summary of the government's allegations, which have not yet been proven.
On Aug 4, 2020, the Federal Trade Commission filed an action in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Missouri, against American Screening, LLC, a Louisiana limited liability company; Ron Kilgarlin Jr. and Shawn Kilgarlin, both individually and as officers of American Screening, LLC to obtain permanent injunctive relief, restitution, rescission or reformation of contracts, the refund of money or return of property, the payment of damages, and other equitable relief for Defendants' acts or practices in violation of Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices of the FTC Act 15 and in violation of the Mail, Internet, or Telephone Order Merchandise Rule (MITOR).
According to the complaint, FTC alleges that the company, which markets PPE in bulk to local governments, hospitals, nursing homes and as well to individuals, promised on its website that items would be shipped "within 24-48 hours" and that products were "in stock" and available to ship. The company failed to follow the requirements laid out in the Mail, Internet, or Telephone Order Merchandise Rule for delayed shipments.
