Beware Free Trials of Anti-Aging Products Sold on the Web

I do not own a credit card, and I am unable to get any "free" samples because of that.
So what I have been doing is sending email messages to a few companies to see if there was another way of getting "free" samples.
I live in Canada, so I am unable to provide a "State" below this message.

I was just scammed by an anti-wrinkle cream free trial. When I received my credit card bill, that's when I discovered the $99.00 charge to this company. The bill that came with the "free" trial was $3.95. I called to verify this and that's when they said I was automatically put on a year membership charging me $99.00 a month. I will never do this again. Be careful.

I don't think that all the antiaging products sell on a web is dangerous for health.it depends on your need.but you should buy a antiaging products on the web from consultant permission.

Please don't go throwing fuel on the fire by posting spam about atrociously overpriced pyramid-scheme acai products like Monavie -- $45 for a bottle of low-grade grape juice with a bit of acai and preservatives like sodium benzoate??? How can you anyone imagine a bigger scam than that? Monavie is not "the pioneer for bringing acai to market" -- that would be retailer Sambazon's claim to fame, and they beat Monavie to market by many years. Unlike Monavie though, Sambazon isn't being sold in back alleys by greedy little hustlers who claim that it can cure everything from the common cold to cancer. Monavie merely copied other Utah-based MLM/pyramid scheme juices that came before them, like Xango and Tahitian Noni, with a pinch of acai pseudoscience thrown in for good measure.

This falls under the header ' If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is . '
I rarely give out my precious credit card number. And certainly NEVER when a company says ' We won't charge it unless..... ' Translation : We will charge your card indefinitely, over and over again, until you threaten to sue us. It's a sad fact you have to be skeptical of everything these days- especially from the internet.

Correct. They did not endorse a specific product, but MonaVie is the pioneer for bringing açai to market. With their patent protection and trademark AçaVie, you should look no farther for the best quality products.
No scam, no tricks. MonaVie - for a More Meaningful Life.
