BOSTON – After being the first state to take action against national e-cigarette retailer Eonsmoke and its co-owners for selling nicotine vaping products to minors, Attorney General\u00a0Maura\u00a0Healey\u00a0today, December 9, announced a settlement that secures nearly $51 million and orders them to no longer sell, distribute, market, or advertise any tobacco product to consumers in Massachusetts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0AG\u2019s settlement<\/a>\u00a0filed today, December 9, in Suffolk Superior Court against Eonsmoke, LLC, Gregory Grishayev and Michael Tolmach, resolves allegations that the defendants directly targeted young people for sales of its vaping products through marketing and advertising intended to appeal to youth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The AG\u2019s Office also alleged that Eonsmoke failed to verify the age of online purchasers of its products\u2014including electronic nicotine devices, e-liquids, and nicotine pods\u2014and failed to ensure shipments of these products were received by a person 21 years or older, the state\u2019s minimum legal sales age for smoking products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[broadstreet zone=”59946″]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cEonsmoke coordinated a campaign that intentionally targeted young people and sold dangerous and addictive vaping products directly to minors through their website,\u201d said AG\u00a0Healey. \u201cWe were the first to take action against this company and its owners, and today we are holding them accountable and permanently stopping them from conducting these illegal practices in our state.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eonsmoke has agreed to a settlement amount of $50 million, and Grishayev and Tolmach will pay a total of $750,000. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the terms of the consent judgment, pending court approval, Eonsmoke is permanently enjoined from selling, distributing, offering for sale, marketing or advertising any tobacco product through any means to consumers in Massachusetts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eonsmoke ceased all operations and dissolved in 2020. If Grishayev and Tolmach want to engage in selling tobacco products in Massachusetts in the future, they are required to get authorization from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and give notice to the AG\u2019s Office to ensure compliance with federal and state law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[broadstreet zone=”59948″]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the AG\u2019s complaint,\u00a0filed in May 2019<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0amended in November 2020<\/a>\u00a0to include Defendants Grishayev and Tolmach, defendants willfully and repeatedly violated the state\u2019s consumer protection law by using a marketing campaign that directly targeted underage consumers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the time, Eonsmoke\u2019s products contained some of the highest nicotine concentrations on the commercial market and came in a variety of sweet and fruit flavors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The AG\u2019s Office alleges that defendants directly marketed Eonsmoke vaping products to young people through social media sites such as Instagram, Snapchat, and YouTube, and included youth popular culture references, social media influencers, celebrity endorsers, cartoons, and internet memes that intentionally minimized or omitted the fact that the vaping products contained nicotine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The AG\u2019s investigation of Eonsmoke also revealed that between 2015 and 2018, the company did not conduct any age verification of consumers purchasing vaping products from its website. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

[broadstreet zone=”59947″]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until September 2018, when the AG\u2019s Office sent a cease-and-desist letter ordering Eonsmoke to stop selling its products in Massachusetts, underage youth across the state were able to freely purchase unlimited quantities of vaping products \u2013 some of whom were only 15 or 16 years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0\u00a0The lawsuit against Eonsmoke was the first AG\u00a0Healey\u00a0filed since announcing her office\u2019s\u00a0investigation into the e-cigarette industry<\/a>\u00a0in July 2018. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, AG\u00a0Healey\u00a0has sued\u00a0eight online e-cigarette retailers<\/a>\u00a0for illegally selling and delivering flavored tobacco products to consumers in Massachusetts, sued online disposable\u00a0e-cigarette company Puff Bar<\/a>\u00a0for the same allegations, and\u00a0sued JUUL<\/a>\u00a0for creating a youth vaping epidemic by intentionally marketing and selling its e-cigarettes to young people.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cease-and-desist letters have also been sent to a number of other e-cigarette companies to stop them from selling their products to Massachusetts residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[broadstreet zone=”59983″]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Massachusetts law and regulations set the minimum legal age to purchase electronic smoking devices at 21 and impose two requirements on online retailers of these products to verify a purchaser\u2019s age: use a commercially-available database to verify the age and identity of purchasers; and use a method of mailing, shipping, or delivery that requires the signature of a person who is of the minimum legal age before the package is released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In November 2019, Massachusetts became the first state in the country to ban the sale of flavored tobacco products, including e-cigarettes and e-liquids. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The law went fully into effect on June 1, 2020, also restricting all menthol flavored tobacco products.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This matter was handled by Senior Counsel Samantha Shusterman of the AG\u2019s Consumer Protection Division, with assistance from Attorney Aaron Davis, Paralegals Matthew Johnson, Breanna Beaudreault, and Andrew Turnbull of the Consumer Protection Division, and Senior Investigator Ciara Tran and Senior Financial Investigator Colleen Frost of the Civil Investigations Division.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
