SCAM alert for Neuropathy treatment

Posted by ktbs @ktbs, Mar 31 11:42am

Why is it legal for AI created videos to sell products for neuropathy supposedly endorsed by Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz and others? I always check to see if they are scams and so many are. Not sure why they are not prosecuted and put out of business.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

Probably because there are bigger fish to fry. I'm glad that you recognize that it's fake. That's how we keep ourselves and our friends safe. Have you seen this older discussion on Connect?

I don't understand how they can continue to get away with stuff like this! I understand they probably not in the US, but there bank account is linked to something that should be froze, at least! I'm so tired of scammers, they are everywhere on the Internet and like that's not enough they call all the time!

Hello,
Welcome to the devious world of AI where absolutely nothing is as it seems. Hence the name “artificial” that plays tricks with our “intelligence”. And by the way, not only AI, but the whole WWW is filled with scams that prey on one and all. We all need to be extremely vigilant in order not to become another prey. Everyone is after a fast buck.
Good luck to you and take care,
