unauthorized memebership
I signed up for a free trial for the ACAIPURE diet supplements. The company advertised a non commitment trial offer. a month later I receive a package with more pills and a notice saying that I joined the "lifestyle" membership. But how can there be no information or button to click saying you are signing up for a "lifestyle" membership and yet I am still getting billed for it? They claim it is written in the disclaimer--and it probably was--but to offer a non-commitment membership and then force you to take one is ridiculous. Since I didn't have to click any special button that says I am signing up, I assumed that "free" trial meant just what is said, FREE. Please do something about this company and any others like them.

Invalid Charges
I ordered a "Free Trial Offer" fot the cost of $1.99 to cover shipping and handeling. My Credit card was charged $41.85 for additonal items the company "automatically sends." The phone number and address on the shipping order are bogus. I tried using their customer service via email and got nowhere. Now a month later I recieved another shipment of un-ordered products and again my credit card was charged $44.90.
How do I stop this cycle? What a mess!
By the sounds of other complaints I am not alone, but that is not comforting!

Acai Pure Scammed me too!!!
BUYER BEWARE!!! SCAMMERS ARE GAINING ACCESS TO YOUR CREDIT CARD BY OFFERING A "RISK FREE TRIAL" OF THEIR PRODUCT BY SIMPLY PAYING THE SHIPPING. AFTER ENTERING YOUR CARD NUMBER, YOU ARE SHIPPED THE FREE PRODUCT.
MANY SITES LOOK LEGITIMATE AND CLAIM TO HAVE BEEN ENDORSED BY CELEBRITIES, SUCH AS OPRAH AND MAY EVEN HAVE FAKE TESTIMONIALS FROM PEOPLE CLAIMING TO HAVE USED THE PRODUCT.
LESS THAN 1 MONTH AFTER ORDERING ACAI PURE AND COLOTOX, I STARTED GETTING CHARGES ON MY CARD FROM MULTIPLE COMPANIES FOR RANDOM AMOUNTS. SUPPOSEDLY I AM BEING BILLED FOR A MEMBERSHIP, BUT I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED ANY MORE PRODUCT.
AFTER CALLING THEM, I AM PROMISED REFUNDS WHILE GETTING MORE CHARGES. I HAD TO FREEZE MY ACCOUNT AND HAVE NEW DEBIT CARDS ISSUED.
BEWARE OF THIS SCAM!!! DON'T ENTER YOUR CARD FOR ANYTHING THAT YOU ARE NOT SURE ABOUT ESPECIALLY IF IT IS NOT THROUGH A SECURE SERVER. I HAVE LOST OVER $500 FROM THESE SCAMS.
IF IT IS TRULY A "RISK FREE TRIAL" THEN YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR SHIPPING!!!
SOME TO AVOID:
COLOTOX, ACAI BERRY, BOWTROL, ACAI PURE, ACAI BURN, ACAI BERRY SUPREME, ACAI BERRY 500,

I originally sent a check for the $4.95 introductory offer. They then debited my checking account for $39.95. Don't know what to do about it. I will be calling my bank on Monday and calling themin Phoenix. I don't know what good that will do me though.

unlawful withdrawl from my credit card
I signed up for a trial sample of acaipure. I returned it saying I didn't want it. I was supposed to get my money back but have had no response. They keep taking money from my credit account and sending more of the product. When I phoned, the message was that I would have to wait about 30 minutes for someone to take my call. This whole thing is a scam and I want my money back!
