Ah yes, the Acai berry. Have you seen the Acai berry free trials lately? I’m sure you have but your wondering if they work, correct? Do you know how those “100% free trials” work? Well I am glad you found this post.
What Are Acai Berry Free Trials All About?
The point of the acai berry free trials is to do one thing and one thing only, to get your payment information. Once the companies have this, watch out. It is not long after that you will be hit with a really expensive re-bill on your credit card. Ever wonder why you can not find the price of the actual product on the website? More often than not, canceling your purchase is almost impossible.
Want Some Proof?
I believe Laura Dolson from about.com has the perfect case study. “A TV station local to me did an investigation of their own, ordering three supplements from three different companies which were advertised as having “free trials” or “risk-free trials”. These “free offers” ended up costing over $200 dollars as the investigator’s credit card was soon charged for extra merchandise, some of which never arrived. Many phone calls, letters on the station’s stationery, and returning product only got the charges from one of the companies reversed.”
Some companies that are under this investigation include the following: FWM Laboratories, Crush LLC, Central Coast Nutraceuticals, and Advanced Wellness Research.
Is the Acai Berry Worth It?
Along with this investigation, a nutritionist commented that the antioxidant levels in the berries themselves are “middle of the road.” There are actually many more common, less expensive, foods that contain the same level of antioxidants and even more in some cases. These companies are very hard to catch because they can pop up and disappear, virtually, overnight.
Here is what the Attorney General of Connecticut, Richard Blumenthal, has to say about these acai berry free trials: “In reality, consumers lose more money than weight after ‘free’ trials transition into inescapable charges.”
What If We Still Want to Try Acai Berry?
There are many reputable places to buy the berry other than through malicious acai berry free trials. The best information I can give you is go into your local Rite Aid or Walmart and pick up a bottle. At least there your not going to get hammered into a shady re-bill and out a few hundred dollars of your hard earned money.
Please do not fall into another internet scam like many have. I do have the resources to promotes these same products and make great money but I have not and WILL NOT consider it! Everyone out there deserves the right to quality information that will help them loose weight!
