“The company opened for business only six months ago. But with gas prices at near-record levels, its product — pills and powders that promised big savings when dropped into a car’s gas tank — caught on in no time.

As all of that money changed hands and the good word of mouth spread, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott says he believes a crucial detail was overlooked: The products didn’t work. He shut down Irving-based BioPerformance this month, saying the company built a pyramid scheme around a worthless product made from the same stuff as mothballs. “
