BEWARE: Acai Berry Scamsters Latest Marketing Tricks

I got an illuminating email today from someone posing as a reader of my blog offering me, for free, an article about the benefits of acai berry and asking that I put it on my blog within the next week. The article which was nothing but a sales pitch for this questionable miracle cure product was included in the post and is now in my email spam bucket.

These are the same people who have put a lot of fake blogs all over the web where people recount their miraculous weight loss with this same product.

The people selling this stuff use tricks to fool Google Ads into running their ads even after they have been blocked, with URLS that change daily. Often the clickthrough doesn’t go to the site Google Ads thinks it does. Very sleazy.

I also am seeing the berry pushers posting on discussion boards as if they were just ordinary people who happened to benefit from this product…

The product is like all miracle weight loss products utter crap, expensive and useless. All the “research” cited is provided by the people selling it, whose marketing tricks are so scammy as to make anything they come up with worthless.

Save your money to buy truly healthy foods: the unprocessed meats, cheeses, eggs, greens, low carb veggies and berries that truly will improve your health.

Thank you, Jenny for all you do to keep us informed and safe. Quite frankly, considering the size and popularity of our TuD community, I am amazed and grateful for our administrators whose work behind the scenes keeps this a safe place to be.

The probably do a lot more work than you realize. I have run some very active computer discussion boards in the past, and half my time was spent deleting off sales pitches, personal attacks, etc. I finally bailed after slightly more than a decade when I couldn’t stand doing it any more.
