It is becoming increasingly more difficult to recognize all of the scams that are out there.

I can spot those Facebook scam ads a mile off. Really makes me angry that they allow so many.

My ad blocker never allows FB ads to show up. I wouldn't touch anything endorsed by Kevin O'Leary. As someone once said "There's a s ***er born every minute."

@spumoni99. That would be difficult PROVING it DOESN'T work, if if you read it doesn't. Chalk it up to experience and be more cautious.

@RetRN

I've gotten to a point where I just skip over ads and any endorsed item on a search.

Too bad some honest folks will lose out thanks to all the scammers. The latest one I saw was by a Miami " doctor" who was hawking her miracle lip line eraser. Right lady !!!

@Kachina624I don't think they require proof if they can specify it was falsly advertised. I follow someone with an online shop and she had someone cancel with their ban 1200 dollars worth of merchandise, she had proof of delivery and they said they never ordered it, she was a scammer and had done this to several online shops.

@spumoni99. That's what I'm saying, how would you prove it doesn't work for some people?

@Kachina624 If the ad was a scam in that Jessie Watters and Kevin O'lEary don't endorse this product, and that is why the @Italian gal's friend bought it, I think she could make a claim. She should contact the company that sold her the product first.

I would caution anyone about celebrity endorsements and unusual products, like anti-aging, dietary supplements. There are a million scams out there. I have seen ads with fake endorsements by Robin Roberts [NOT] and other TV hosts.

@NYCLatinaMeYes exactly and nothing has to be proven.

The only way to get a remedy through the credit card company is if the buyer doesn't actually get the product. They will react on that pretty quickly after one attempt to contact the company. Other than that, credit card companies will also back up trying to return something but there's no address. Otherwise it's caveat emptor.

If it sounds too good to be true, it's a scam. They prey on the uninformed and people looking for the cheap and easy solution. There can't be a cream that treats or relieves any and all neuropathies. Scores of diseases can cause neuropathy and the key is to find the underlying cause and treat that.

I don't understand the whole AI thing. It's not needed and is ridiculous, imo.
