UPDATE: Stormy Wellington Must Notify Recruits Of ‘Deceptive Claims’ After Federal Trade Commission Crackdown

#StormyWellington isn’t getting off the hook that easily.

ICYMI: Stormy was accused of misleading people about how much money they could realistically earn. According to the Federal Trade Commission, she promoted “false or baseless earning claims” to recruit participants. She allegedly sold a get-rich vision, encouraging people to join companies like Total Life Changes and Farmasi with promises of big money, despite there being participants who struggled to turn a profit at all. While she didn’t have to admit or deny the allegations tied to those claims, the settlement now places serious restrictions on how she can operate moving forward.
____________

According to court documents obtained by Document Tingz, the #FTC has officially locked in a federal court order that permanently bars her from making misleading earnings claims tied to any venture, especially MLM-style businesses. That includes exaggerating how much people can earn, cherry-picking success stories, or leaving out the fact that most participants don’t make significant money. If she talks earnings at all, it must be backed by written proof at the time, and she has to be able to produce that documentation if customers, recruits, or the FTC request it.
____________

There’s also an immediate damage-control requirement built into the order. Within 7 days, Stormy was required to send an email to her entire downline with the subject line: “Important Notice Regarding Deceptive Earnings Claims from Stormy Wellington.” The notice states the FTC accused her of misleading income claims and makes clear she can no longer make those types of statements. And this isn’t short-term oversight, it’s long-term supervision.
____________

Stormy must confirm receipt of the order, file a sworn compliance report after one year, and report certain business changes for the next 15 years. She’s also required to maintain detailed records for years, while the FTC is granted broad monitoring power, including the ability to demand documents, sworn statements, and depositions without needing additional court approval. Bottom line: she will be watched closely.
