How do we stop the Acai Berry scams?
Nearly every time i answer a question regarding weight loss someone has suggested Acai Berry and the so called ‘free’ trial that seems to be all over the net at the moment. Even saying things like,’ what have you got to lose’! I’ll tell you what you’ve got to lose, sanity, and lots of money
I’ve been burned by the scam and i’m trying to alert others to the dangers involved with the ‘free’ trials, as they take 100’s of dollars out of your account (often under loads of different names) and it’s really hard to cancel and even harder to get your money back, plus there is no substantial proof that it helps you lose weight.
How can we stop these scammers from answering our diet and fitness questions?
Just a note to say that apparently Oprah Winfrey and doctor Oz are working in conjunction with the Attorney General of Iowa to raise awarness about the scams.
The first answer you got was a spam – it has been reported and deleted.
We are all sick of them – and many people like you have been scammed out of a lot of money with the so called "free trials".
All we can do is report them – if everyone did this we would be rid of some of their rubbish, though we will never get rid of all of them, and people wouldn’t click on links which lead to dodgy sites for products that don’t work, and scam you out of a lot of money.
Keep reporting

you probbaly wontg like my answer but acai berry products are proven and if it didnt work it wouldnt be on oprah and succees stories wouldnt be all over the internet
The thing is that people are scamming and we need to stop that by reporting it immedately the risk free trials are very risky and the people can hack into your credit cards steal money and not give you the product. and i agree we do need to stop it
but acai berry is very healthy and nutritous the results arent the same as the ones on the acai berry sellers website but succees stories seem incredible, and know quite a few people who were happy with being on the diet
so in conclusion DONT BUY ACAI ONLINE buy it at local pharmacies or buy them whole instead of in powders or supplements like the ones you find online.
ANd no one can lose weight just by taking acai you need exercise and good eating habits too acai doesnt solve everyhting just helps to cleanse you still need some common sense

yeah… fortunately and unfortunately, acai berry works. i had a friend who tried it and it worked well for her. i can’t try it to prove it coz i currently weigh 92 lbs at 5′3 ft. I might try for the cleansing purpose, though, but not for weight loss coz I don’t have any weight to lose.
I think we can stop the internet acai berry scam if somebody would just come up with the list of all those sites and products that resulted to them falling into scam—so at least people would be more aware of which advices to take and which advices to report.
