A health fraud scam is a way to fool people about health products that may not be all they’re cracked up to be. They play on our desires for a quick fix and bombard us with deceptive marketing. . . . [They] can be found everywhere, promising help for many common health issues, including weight loss, memory loss, sexual performance, and joint pain. These scams are risky for the consumer. Relying on unproven products can lead to delays in getting the proper treatment and can cause serious or fatal injuries. These claims are often used in health fraud scams and should be considered red flags: miraculous cure; quick fix; ancient remedy; and new discovery. Many claim to offer no-risk money back guarantee. Additionally, if a product claims to cure a wide range of unrelated diseases, it’s probably a scam. No one product can treat or cure many different illnesses. – “Don’t Be a Victim of Health Fraud Scams,”
