("TILA"), 15 U.S.C. 1601, et. seq., as amended. Further, federal diversity jurisdiction exists

in this matter, as the Plaintiffs are both citizens of the state of Mississippi, and all three

Defendants are citizens are Arkansas and South Dakota/California, respectively. Complete

diversity exists between the parties of this action, and the claims of the Plaintiffs, not

counting the potential claims of the proposed Rule 23 Class, exceed $75,000.00.

7. This Court possesses personal jurisdiction over each of the Defendants in this

action based upon their substantial and purposeful contacts with Mississippi, the forum

state.

8. Venue for this dispute properly lies with this Court, as this litigation involves

substantial alleged acts or omissions which occurred in Waynesboro, Wayne County,

Mississippi (among other locations, presumably), located within judicial district of the United

States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi.

REQUEST FOR CLASS CERTIFICATION UNDER FEDFERAL RULE OFCIVIL PROCEDURE 23

9. The Hudsons, on behalf of those similarly-situated, seek certification as the

class representative for a class action lawsuit, under Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil

Procedure.

10. The class sought to be certified under Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil

Procedure, with the Hudsons as the class representatives, is all of those who have been

victimized by the deceptive, fraudulent, unconscionable, high-pressure, in-home sales,

advertising, financing, and business practices of the Defendants, as it relates to operation of

the business marketed as Windows USA/Alaskan Windows Systems (and for which Wells

Fargo provides exclusive, and deceptive, financing). Presumably, any individual who has

COMPLAINT Page 3 of 18

Page 4: Angela IV - Truth In Advertising

Case 3:16-cv-00596-DPJ-FKB Document 1 Filed 07/28/16 Page 4 of 18

bought from, or otherwise has been financially-injured by, the business practices described in

this Complaint is a potential member of the Rule 23 class sought to be certified in this civil

action.

11. The Hudsons, as victims of the deceptive, fraudulent, unconscionable, high-

pressure, in-home sales, advertising, financing, and business practices of the Defendants, as

it relates to operation of the business marketed as Windows USA/Alaskan Windows

Systems (and for which Wells Fargo provides exclusive, and deceptive, financing) have been

financially-injured by the business practices described in this Complaint.

12. The Hudsons, as the prospective class representatives, and the prospective

members of this class, under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23, have shared similar injuries,

and have suffered from similar forms of financial injury as a sole and proximate result of the

deceptive, fraudulent, unconscionable, high-pressure, in-home sales, advertising, financing,

and business practices of the Defendants, as it relates to operation of the business marketed

as Windows USA/Alaskan Windows Systems (and for which Wells Fargo provides

exclusive, and deceptive, fmancing).

13. Specifically, as relates to the appropriated of this proposed class certification

under Rule 23(b)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Defendants have acted

and/or refused to act on grounds generally applicable to the class, making appropriate

declaratory and injunctive relief with respect to the Hudsons, and the class as a whole. The

proposed class members are entitled to injunctive relief to end the Defendants' common,

uniform, and deceptive trade, sales, advertising, and financing practices.

Case 3:16-cv-00596-DPJ-FKB Document 1 Filed 07/28/16 Page 5 of 18

14. Further, the proposed class is so numerous that joinder would be

impracticable. Although the precise number of members of the proposed class is currently

unknown, this number is far greater than can be feasibly addressed through joinder.

15. The class members of the proposed class also share common questions of fact

and law. Among these common questions of fact are law are: (1) whether the Defendants'

policies or practices, as relate to the operation ofWindows USA/Alaskan Window Systems

(and Wells Fargo, as to the financing) are deceptive, unlawful, unconscionable, and fradulent;

(2) whether the Defendants' policies and practices violate the TILA, 15 U.S.C. 1601 et.seq.,

as amended (and the corresponding, duly-promulgated federal regulations to enforce this

statute); and (3) whether monetary damages, injunctive relief, and/or other equitable

remedies for the class are warranted.

16. The Hudsons, the proposed class representative, has suffered injuries, and has

claims, that are typical of all customers (victims) of the deceptive trade practices described in

this Complaint.

17. The Hudsons, as the proposed class representatives (the Class Plaintiffs), will

fairly and adequately represent and protect the interests of the members of the class.

FACTS

18. Windows USA's/Alaskan Windows Systems' sales, advertising, and financing

(via Wells Fargo) model is based upon deceptive, fraudulent, unconscionable, high-pressure,

in-home sales, advertising, financing, and business practices. To put in bluntly: the products,

the sales practices, the referral-program, and especially, the financing-scheme devised and

perpetuated by the Defendants is a fraud and a scam.

COMPLAINT Page 5 of 18

Page 6: Angela IV - Truth In Advertising

Case 3:16-cv-00596-DPJ-FKB Document 1 Filed 07/28/16 Page 6 of 18

19. First, Windows USA/Alaskan Windows Systems knowingly, or in a (grossly)

negligent manner, and as a matter of standard and customary practice, misrepresent the

alleged savings that its customers will realize on their monthly utility bills. Although the in-

home (and incredibly and unconscionably high-pressure) sales force of Windows USA

promises its prospective customers an immediate savings of 60-70% on their monthly home

electric bills, no such savings occur.

20. Second, Windows USA/Alaskan Windows Systems knowingly, or in a

(grossly) negligent manner, and as a matter of standard and customary practice, misrepresent

the alleged increase in the appraisal value of the homes of its customers that will be rea1i7ed

following the installation of Windows USA's products. Although the in-home (and

incredibly and unconscionably high-pressure) sales force of Windows USA promises its

prospective customers an immediate increase in the appraisal value of their homes (generally,

120% of the cost of the Windows USA product but always more than the cost of the price

quoted by the sales representative of Windows USA). Despite these explicit promises

(warranties), reasonably relied upon by the prospective customers ofWindows USA, no such

fair-market-value increases, as appraised, occur.

21. Third, the price of the products and installation, of said products, offered by

the high-pressure sales force of Windows USA/Alaskan Windows Systems, is a scheme of

bait-and-switch. The actual price of the products offered by Windows USA is not consistent.

The sales force of Windows USA, who often refuses to leave prospective customers' homes

(despite these in-home appointments regularly running past 10 P.M.) until the Defendants"

sales and financing agreements are signed, plays fraudulent games regarding the prices of its

COMPLAINT Page 6 of 18

Page 7: Angela IV - Truth In Advertising

Case 3:16-cv-00596-DPJ-FKB Document 1 Filed 07/28/16 Page 7 of 18

products and services. The sales representatives for Windows USA regularly call their

"supervisors" to obtain special, for-you-only, one-night-only, so-called "Savings Vouchers."

The elaborate design around this deception and fraud is consistent with the overall business

practices of the Defendants, as it relates to the sales, advertising, and financing of Windows

USA products, and even the products, themselves.

22. The fmancing of the Windows USA customer-purchases (derived from

unlawful, deceptive, and unconscionably high-pressure sales tactics, with the sales

appointments, themselves, always induced by an elaborate referral-scheme of $100 Wal-Mart

gift cards) is deceptive, fraudulent, unlawful, and unconscionable. Specifically, this allegation

refers to the exclusive-financing relationship that exists between Windows USA/Alaskan

Windows Systems and Wells Fargo Bank, whereby customers are led to believe that they are

applying for a traditional, closed-end loan only for the amount of the ever-shifting price

quoted by the Windows USA sales representative. In fact, the Defendants actually trick or

otherwise induce, without the required disclosures about the nature of the credit-application

being executed, the customers to apply for what turns out to be a Visa Home Projects credit

card, issued by Wells Fargo bank.

23. As a standard practice, Windows USA's sales force completes all paperwork

that is executed during these late-night, in-home appointments, and then simply gets the

customers to sign the paperwork that was filled out by the Windows USA sales

representative.

24. This practice, pleaded in the paragraph above, is aimed by the Defendants at

deceiving and /or concealing from the prospective customers ofWindows USA/Wells

COMPLAINT Page 7 of 18

Page 8: Angela IV - Truth In Advertising

Case 3:16-cv-00596-DPJ-FKB Document 1 Filed 07/28/16 Page 8 of 18

Fargo: (1) the nature and quality of the actual products they are purchasing; (2) the many

terms and conditions that apply to Windows USA's so-called "100% Satisfaction Guarantee"

program; and (3) the financing terms and the fact that a Visa Home Projects Program

credit card is being applied for of the transaction. This practice of the Defendants, among

constituting various other torts, breaches of express warranties and implied covenants, and

statutory-violations, is an unlawful violation of the Truth in Lending Act.

25. On December 9, 2015, the Hudsons, induced by the unconscionable and

sleazy Wal-Mart Gift Card Referral Program ofWindows USA, allowed a sales

representative of that company to make an in-home demonstration of the Windows

USA/Alaskan Windows Systems product(s).

26. During this December 9, 2015, in-home demonstration, Windows USA sales

representative, Aaron Williams: (1) promised (expressly-warranted) the Hudsons that they

would 100%, without qualification, realize a savings of 60-70% on their monthly electric

bills, from the date that the Windows USA products are first installed; (2) promised

(expressly-warranted) the Hudsons that they would 100%, without qualification, realize an

immediate increase in the appraised fair-market-value of their home of at least the cost of

the windows, $9,840.00, from the date that the Windows USA products are first installed; (3)

filled out all paperwork (much ofwhich is was printed out from the Hudsons own printer)

and, while misrepresenting and/or concealing the fact that a credit card was being applied

for (the financing was always described as an unsecured, closed-end "loan from Wells

Fargo"), instructed the Hudsons just so sign all of the forms without reading them (the sales

representative would describe the terms of the documents), as it was already past 10.P.M.;

COMPLAINT Page 8 of 18

Page 9: Angela IV - Truth In Advertising

Case 3:16-cv-00596-DPJ-FKB Document 1 Filed 07/28/16 Page 9 of 18

and (4) promised the Hudsons, without any qualification, that if they are "ever less than

100% satisfied" with the Windows USA windows, then they would get a full refund.

27. All of the above promises made by Windows USA sales representative, Aaron

Williams, were not true, or were deceptive and fraudulent.

28. The Invoice and Right to Cancel form, filled out by Windows USA sales

representative, Aaron Williams, which the Hudsons were deceived and tricked into signed, is

attached, and incorporated into, this Complaint as Exhibit "1". It is important to note that

the three-day right-to-cancel period in this Windows USA contract expired long before

Windows USA actually installed its products at the Hudsons' home.

29. The high-pressure, bait-and-switch, and deceptive practice ofWindows

USA/Alaskan Windows Systems of offering so-called "limited time", "one-night-only"

discounts (that are likely not even discounts, as the original quoted-price is almost certainly

inflated) is represented by the "Express Custom Window Order" program form, executed by

the Hudsons is attached, and hereby incorporated into, this Complaint as Exhibit "2".

30. The deceptive and fraudulent "Estimated Project Savings" form provided to

the Hudsons by Windows USA Sales Representative, Aaron Williams, which Mr. Williams

explicitly, but only orally, stated to the Hudson was not an estimate, but a guarantee, and

which shows a 10-year "Estimated Project Savings (E.P.S.)" of $14,997 is attached, and

hereby incorporated into, this Complaint as Exhibit "3".

31. The highly fraudulent and deceptive `Windows USA Finance Term Review

and Disclosure" form the central form that Windows USA and Wells Fargo use to trick,

misrepresent, and deceive their prospective customers as it related to the practdces at issue in

COMPLAINT Page 9 of 18

Page 10: Angela IV - Truth In Advertising

Case 3:16-cv-00596-DPJ-FKB Document 1 Filed 07/28/16 Page 10 of 18

this Complaint that was used by the Defendants to deceive, mislead, and defraud the

Hudsons is attached, and hereby incorporate into, this Complaint as Exhibit "4". It is

essential to note several facts about the fraudulent and deception Windows USA Finance

Term Review and Disclosure Form, Ex. 4: (1) the numbers of payments, and the amount of

payments, at the interest rate listed in this form, are intentionally incorrect, for the purpose

of inducing prospective customers to agree to the sale and financing terms; (2) the Finance

Term Review and Disclosure form does not disclose that a Visa Home Projects Program

credit card is the actual financing-vehicle for this transaction; (3) the Finance Term Review

and Disclosure form fraudulently represents that "Financing Provided By Wells Fargo

Financial National Bank", when it is, in fact, provided by a Visa Home Projects Program

credit card; and (4) the Finance Term Review and Disclosure form fraudulently represents

that "this UNSECURED line of credit has been approved as a FIXED interest rate of

10.99%", when it is, in fact, provided by a Visa Home Projects Program credit card that

carries an interest rate of 27.99% APR.

32. The Visa credit card application, completely filled out by Windows USA sales

representative, Aaron Williams, which was represented to the Hudsons as a Wells Fargo

closed-end loan form (consistent with the fraudulent terms on the Finance Term Review and

Disclosure form provided to the Hudsons, which the Hudsons were incorrectly told

contained all of the finance terms for their transaction with Windows USA), is attached, and

incorporated into, this Complaint as Exhibit "5". The terms of this Agreement are entirely

unenforceable, as the Hudsons' execution of Ex. 5 to this Complaint was induced by fraud,

and constitutes a fraud-in-the-factum ofwhat was being signed.

Page 11: Angela IV - Truth In Advertising

Case 3:16-cv-00596-DPJ-FKB Document 1 Filed 07/28/16 Page 11 of 18

33. A copy of the image of the credit card that ended up being issued to the

Hudsons, unbeknownst to them, is attached, and incorporated into, this Complaint as

Exhibit "6".

34. A collection of the immense amount of Windows USA Referral-Program

marketing materials, left with the Hudsons, is attached, and hereby incorporated into, this

Complaint as Collective Exhibit "7". These materials illustrate the high-pressure,

unconscionable, deceptive, and just plain sleazy nature of the sales practices ofWindows

USA/Alaskan Windows Systems, at issue in this lawsuit.

35. A collection of the immense amount ofWindows USA marketing materials,

left with the Hudsons, that promise customers "100% Satisfaction, "a 100% Guarantee",

and which make other false claims regarding the quality of the products and services of

Windows USA is attached, and hereby incorporated into, this Complaint as Collective

Exhibit "8". These materials illustrate some of the many deceptive and false claims that

Windows USA/Alaskan Windows Systems makes to its prospective customers, and which

are at issue in this lawsuit.

36. A collection of Windows USA marketing materials, left with the Hudsons,

that showcase the high-pressure sales tactics, and false claims of "limited time savings", is

attached, and hereby incorporated into, this Complaint as Collective Exhibit "9". These

materials illustrate some of the many deceptive, false, or otherwise unconscionable claims

that Windows USA/Alaskan Windows Systems makes to its prospective customers, and

which are at issue in this lawsuit.

Page 12: Angela IV - Truth In Advertising

Case 3:16-cv-00596-DPJ-FKB Document 1 Filed 07/28/16 Page 12 of 18

37. The Hudsons are not 100% satisfied with the quality, or installation, of their

Windows USA/Alaskan Windows Systems products.

38. The Hudsons have not realized any noticeable savings on their monthly

electric bills, as promised by Windows USA.

39. The Hudsons have not realized any increase in the fair-market-value of their

home as a result of the installation of the Windows USA/Alaskan Windows Systems

windows, as promised by Windows USA.

40. The Hudsons have been deceived, tricked, and defrauded into signing up for a

Visa Home Projects Program credit card, as a result of the wrongful and deceptive acts of

the Defendants.

41. Windows USA misrepresents and deceives its prospective customers regarding

the so-called state-of-the art, high-tech nature of its windows, which, in reality, are nothing

more than over-priced double-pane windows. This deception occurs for the purpose of a

wrongful pecuniary gain by the Defendants.

42. The Hudsons have suffered severe financial damages, including damages

stemming from the ruination of their credit history, as a result of the wrongful and deceptive

acts committed by the Defendants, and pleaded in this Complaint.
