SLIM GARCINIA CAMBOGIA This company is a pure scam. They 'sell' a free sample for the cost of shipping & handling, then slam my credit card for the next shipment which is on auto ship. There is NOTHING in the original come on about auto ship or membership of ANY kind, it's a WEIGHT LOSS PROMOTION POP UP TAMPA, FLORIDA Internet
Natural Life brand "Slim Garcinia Cambogia" is a pop up weight loss add on social media sites all over the place. I made the huge mistake of clicking on it (having read about this popular weight loss supplement in other places) and it offered a 'trail program' for ONE TIME to get the supplement for FREE for the cost of shipping and handling only. S & H was $6.95 and there were NO options other than that. No auto-ship, no memberships, no other written or implied issues.
I sent in my credit info and was charged the $6.95. I then found the EXACT same thing in my local Whole Foods for a higher miligram and lower cost, so never even used the stuff they sent me (in a bottle with NO LABEL, so who even knows what is in there?!!) and there was no invoice, no nothing. Just a blank package with a blank bottle inside with white capsules with a white powder in them.
I forgot about it and figured the $6.95 was no big loss. Until I got another one in the mail. Same thing, no label, no invoice, just a package with their return address on the label. I went to my bank account and found a charge of $78 on there from them.
I could not locate a phone number anyhwere until I found YOUR site and when I called the 800 number (the address and company name matched) a woman answered who said she could not find my name, my credit card or my zip code in her files. I told her I have the right company and the right number - she said I did not. When I asked to speak to a manager, she pretended to put me on hold and I was disconnected.
When I called back immediately, the phone rang and rang and rang. She obviously had caller ID and had decided not to answer. This is a PURE RIP OFF SCAM.
If I have to close out my bank account to keep them out, I will find a way to sue them, so if any attorneys read this, YES these people need to be sued and put OUT of business!!!
A hard lesson, NEVER EVER click on anything that pops up on the internet, regardless of how good it sounds.
It's a RIP OFF.
