The FDA Center for Tobacco Products issued a Warning Letter to http://www.getcheapcigs.net after reviewing their website and determining they offer cigarette products for sale or distribution in the United States. The FDA found multiple violations of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act).

Firstly, several cigarette products are deemed "adulterated" under section 902(8) of the FD&C Act because they are "modified risk tobacco products" sold without an FDA order. These products use descriptors like "Lights," "mildness," "low tar," or "ultra-light," or claim reduced harm or exposure to substances (e.g., Bond Street Special Selection "Bond Lights," "Camel Lights," "Marlboro Lights," Gauloises "lower tar," Parliament Lights "low tar & nicotine," Winston One "very low 0.1 mg of tar"). Such claims classify them as modified risk tobacco products under section 911(b)(2)(A) of the FD&C Act, requiring an FDA order for sale.

Secondly, several flavored cigarette products are "adulterated" under section 902(5) of the FD&C Act or "misbranded" under section 903(a)(1) or 903(a)(7)(A) of the FD&C Act. Products like Aroma Rich Apple, Kiss Mohito, Richmond Cherry, and Sobran
