"1 trick of..." instead of "1 trick for..." for example. i also wonder if using the word "trick" is some kind of inside joke for them, as they haul their ill-gotten gains all the way to the bank! i wonder where these ads originate from? i mean, because of the fractured, grammatically twisted english phrasing, i suspect this company of scammers is overseas somewhere, perhaps in eastern europe or somewhere in asia? it always had a foreign ring to me. “1 trick of…” instead of “1 trick for…” for example. i also wonder if using the word “trick” is some kind of inside joke for them, as they haul their ill-gotten gains all the way to the bank!

One thing I can tell you - the margins on legit businesses are not fat enough to finance blanketing all sorts of websites with ads. Before I wrote the article I checked a bunch of them and the majority of these ads lead to some variation of the above. Though I appreciate your comment I would also note you are at a very early stage to comment in terms of your experience with the product you purchased. Come back in a couple months and let us know your final opinion. That’s interesting and yes I am sure it is a copycat.

I haven't started to use the workouts yet, so we'll see, but it appears maybe the acai berry scammers are copying these ads? Have you ever watched the video that this ad takes you to until the end? I've clicked on them a few times and never got an acai berry offer or any trial offer of any kind. Just my 2 cents...

I HOPE EVERYONE WHO IS FRUSTRATED BY SILLY DIETS READS THIS AND LEARNS. Again - well done! J Well done Matt - I was sick to death of that advert but curious to know!

Unfortunately current laws don't do much to protect consumers from these sort of traps. So what can we do? (1) Complain to the websites that host these ads and tell them you'll take your business elsewhere. (2) Spread the word that these ads are for Acai and that they don't work and that it's a scam. Track down someone who actually works for this company (good luck) and start calling them in the middle of the night. These are extremely annoying ads.

If your still being billed for something you clearly don't want all you need to do is phone your bank/building society etc and either get them to cancel the subscription or if that fails then you cancel your card and have another one sent to you....

By way of feedback, I've noticed that there has been an improvement since I uninstalled the Google Toolbar. The ad still appears on (mainly newspaper) websites but it is only text, so I'm spared having to look at that appalling graphic. Thank you for your comprehensive explanation.
