Acai-Cleanse Scams – Update

When I started writing my scam alerts, I started with a small list of sites – so I combined the “Kevin Hoeffers” of the world with the “Jenny Conrads” of the world into a single post. As time went by, my lists were getting larger and larger, to the point that I really needed to break them into separate posts.  So I have taken the Acai/Cleanse scams out of the original post and placed them where they belong – in a dedicated post right here.

I have also now started a list of the variations of the products being peddled by these sites, which is at the bottom of this post.

The net is rife with variations of the websites listed below. Many use the same (or similar) layout and many are heavily advertised. Sometimes the page changes from one fake persona to another. Sometimes a main page has one persona, while a subdirectory has another. Most uses a 2-part “Dynamic Duo” of products. Some are fake blogs, some are fake review sites. Almost all say you can get the products FREE if you just pay shipping… and then hit your credit card for a hefty fee.

Do a Google search for “Kitchill Burah” and see how many of these websites pop up. If you are foolish enough to believe what you read or give them your credit card number, you will regret it. You’ll be signing up for something much more expensive that is nearly impossible to cancel.

Some of the newer blogs are including a disclaimer at the bottom, pointing out that you might be charged if you don’t cancel. That is a good step. But they are still misleading with the fake before/after photos, fake first-hand accounts, fake personas, still sell the exact same products, still have phony (and often reused) comments, still have rampant complaints about customer service and inability to get refunds. There is still deception not covered in the disclaimers I’ve seen, which still makes it fraudulent.

So without further adieu, here is “The List” that is being constantly updated, along with brief notes on each one.

Feb 4 Update: I’ll occasionally note when and where I saw an ad for a particular url listed below. It’s not meant to be comprehensive, but to give a general idea of where the advertising is going for these sites.

Jan 14, 2010 update – I’m adding some of the new sites being advertised to this list.  Sites come and go and change quickly, so any of these sites on a given day may be different or not exist at all. I am also going through all of the older sites to see if they still exist today. Funny how many were so heavily advertised only a year ago and are gone already.

I will begin noting sites in red that existed a year ago and are now offline. This will be a good visual of how fast these sites come, take your money, and go.

acaiberrydetox.com – The landing page for some of these scams when you click on the “free trial” link. I can’t say yet that this actual site has been deceptive, but it is associated with known scammers, and pushes a dubious product. Also offers a “free trial.” It is best to avoid. Still operating as of 1/14/2010.
acaiberryscam.org – An obvious and desperate attempt to appear to objectively review three Acai products – which are all related scams. Basically, it is a scammer telling you which of his products are best. Jan 2010 now forwarding to med-library.net, which is still a pro-Acai site.
acaiberrytruth.org – An especially pathetic attempt to appear neutral, when all this site does is promote the variations of the Acai scams found elsewhere here. Sub-par web design looks like it was slapped together. Even uses the same “hands holding berries” photo that most fake blogs here is used. Jan 2010 now forwarding to med-library.net, which is still a pro-Acai site.
acaicomparison.com - A lame “review” site that only reviews those Acai products being peddled by scammers all over the internet. It does offer a disclaimer that says you will be charged before your trial ends and has an extensive “terms” page – but why would an “independent” review site even need to warn about a trial period, hmmm? This site claims to be 100% impartial and unbiased, which is hard to believe when it is pushing three products so heavily advertised by scammers. Take a look at grantscompared.com for an almost identical “review” site. Site is blank 1/14/2010.
acaifacts.org – Another weak and phony attempt at “ranking” different Acai products, which are all actually related. 1/15/2010 – Site still exists.
acaihealthtest.com – Another fake blog, though a different template. Typical Acai/Cleanse pitch along with a couple of “reviews” that happen to all be good and link to a page to get your contact info and has deceptive references to Dr. Oz, Oprah, and Rachel Ray. Tons and tons of “comments” that all happen to be positive. Advertised on CBS radio 2/6/09. Gone by January 2010.

I’ve added a of sad-but-funny “Fake Diet Girl” photo album, which gives a good perspective of the re-use of photos and personalities. I have also added two new scam alerts related to these sites – one for teeth whitening and one for anti-aging products. And of course don’t forget the scam that opened my eyes to all of this in the first place, the Grants/Google scams made famous by “Kevin Hoeffer.”
