Acai Berry Scam

The Acai Berry Edge is one of those rapidly multiplying consumer product now available over the internet. They have so many ways to lure consumers into buying these products like frequent shipping offers and publicity plugs. Their products are even acclaimed by the media. Let us take for instance, Sports Illustrated, it talks about the great benefits of the acai berry itself but not the Acai Berry Edge. Situations like these are typical of plugging products which are somewhat illegal. The one discussing about the acai berry does have faith in its benefits and that it actually works.

Acai berry products which are created in certain countries which are usually second-rate, is where the issues usually comes from. Because the berry is liable to rot in just a very short span of time, what is usually recommended is the dried-out then frozen type. Rather than getting the real thing, there are those who have replaced whole freeze-dried berries with their byproducts instead, like the shells and skins, all because of the acai berry scam. In so doing, the true effects of the berry will never be experienced by the product’s users. And of course hyperbole and falsehood, coupled with an inferior product, causes, not only disappointment, but loss of many precious dollars by consumers, who fall victim to these hucksters.

Acai Berry Edge has a Terms of Service on the their website that we can look at. Ok you get 2 bottles and they give you a 30-day guarantee. After the 14 days free trial they bill your card more than $80.00 This process is repeated every month until you cancel. So every month you get charged for the product and shipping and handling. Their return policy is that they cannot refund your money, however, what they do is that they allow you to substitute another product from their company, which is usually of the same quality. At issue is not whether the product works as desired but the fact that you are forced into an autoship/autobill situation.

You have to wonder why the company doesn’t think you will reorder without them auto billing and auto shipping. Some of the scams out there are pretty extreme. Unfortunately, many genuine products are crowded by all the imitations and watered-down versions of the real thing. The implication here is don’t throw out the “baby out with the bath water.” Learn to be a discerning customer. The time spent in doing some research will save you time and frustration later.
