Apparently there are a number of scams going on with dietary supplements. I saw an ad in the Los Angeles Times online about weight-loss promising remarkable results. I am looking to lose about ten pounds, so I figured this sounded great. And natural--using the Acai Berry. They have testimonials and such, so I called the 800 number and soon found myself in a quagmire of charges to my debit card. I had not even received my "free trial"--I was supposed to pay $1 plus $4.95 shipping--and my debit card already had been charged for a continuuing subscription! I sent back (unopened) all future shipments received. I had to cancel my debit card, and with the help of the bank, managed to get credited back to my account three months of charges for continuuing subscriptions I never ordered. My free trial almost cost me over $200!! My advice is this: if you're looking for a dietary supplement, go to a health store. If you're looking to be fleeced, purchase something online that has "acai berry" in the name.
