Avoid an Acai Supplement Scam

Acai berries are the one of the hottest diet and health supplements on the market today. They have been featured on talk shows, news programs, and in newspapers and magazines. Many people are concerned that an acai berry scam will rob them of their money so they forsake the opportunity for the health benefits they can get.

Typical acai berry scam

One of the scams associated with acai berries is supposed franchised distributors. You will be asked to pay a substantial for the “right” to buy supplements at a reduced price that you can then sell at a profit. With any business like this, the cost of the distributorship should easily be recouped with your first order. If a company wants you to pay a lot of money to them so you have the right to sell their product, the product probably isn’t very good.

Another scam that people complain of is getting billed for supplements they did not want after signing up for a free trial. The only thing I can say about this scam is to make sure you know what you are signing up for when you get something “free”. We both know that this world doesn’t run on giving things away for free so if you get something for free, there is always a price. With many acai berry supplement offers, the cost of the free trial is a recurring monthly shipment that is not free. This is the same thing you get into with getting CD’s from Columbia House so it is nothing confined to the health supplement industry.

If you get a trial with recurring shipments and you don’t want them any more, all you have to do is cancel your shipment before it gets charged to your credit card. If you do get pills you didn’t want, make sure you don’t open them and contact the company to find out what you have to do to return them. All reputable companies will accept returns.

The real scam part of free trials is that many companies lure you in, make some charges to your credit card then go out of business. You can avoid this type of scam a couple ways. First, make sure the company you are dealing with is legitimate and has been around for a while. Second, use a prepaid credit card that only has enough money on it for the free trial. If you do this, when they go to charge the credit card for the free trial, the charge will be declined.
