SMC Roundtable - Beware Acai Berry Free Trial Scams

CCN Acai Berry Sellers Sued By FTC Shocker

Annie — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 20:10:43 +0000

acai berry is definitely more than just a delicious fruit. You will find that this berry has significant more, up to four times more, antioxidants than even the blueberry, which was the leader in antioxidants for many years. Acai berries naturally grow in the Amazon Rain Forest, but can be frozen to be shipped areas around the world. Along with antioxidants, you will also find that acai berry contains both fiber and amino acids.

Fiber is a daily requirement for everyone, but is particularly important when you want to lose weight. Fiber can provide a sense of fullness, and will help you regulate your digestion. Amino acids are also important when you want to lose weight, since they will help you by providing your body with the necessary ingredients to turn fat into muscle. Losing weight is simple when you use acai berry to help regulate digestion, build muscle and decrease appetite.

US District judge order CCN to stop ALL acai berry internet operations

More than a year after the US attorney general issued a $1.37 million dollar fine against Central Coast Nutraceuticals (CCN) for deceptive business practices that didn’t have much effect, it looks like CCN will finally be shut down. The FTC followed up and convinced a US district judge to issue the injunction against CCN, which effectively halts ALL their operations

After listening to consumers complaints for 2 years now, the FTC has taken action again. They convinced a US federal district judge to issue an injunction against one of the biggest companies behind the Acai Berry Free Trial scams, Central Coast Nutraceuticals (CCN), effectively halting all their internet operations and freezing their bank accounts.

Its about time! Yes, the FTC is a government bureaucracy, so moves very slowly. They’ve been inundated with complaints from tens of thousands of irate consumers now, with estimates of over a MILLION victims of these scams. To be fair, they did make a case A YEAR ago against a Texas man who was a force behind these schemes in the early days. He quit the business and was fined a few thousand dollars – about what you pay for a big traffic ticket!

Here’s the strange part of the big fuss they are making about this single case - The US attorney general made a big fuss in June 2009 about a record fine against an acai berry distributor. Guess who it was? CCN! With hundreds of websites and dozens of companies pushing these scams all over the internet, the FTC makes a big deal about a court decision to stop the SAME COMPANY that the US attorney general supposedly shut down OVER A YEAR AGO! Please forgive my cynical nature, but it sounds like the different government agencies are fighting for credit over the same case. Either that, or the $1.37 million fine last year didn’t convince CCN to stop. In which case, why didn’t the US Attorney general do more LAST YEAR?

Ok, enough with being cynical. It sounds like CCN is finally being shut down. Lets hope the FTC keeps the pressure up and pursues more cases to shut down the rest of the scumbags.

Aviod Acai Berry Juices In Plastic Bottles

You may have seen actual Acai berry juices for sale in stores and one thing might have stood out to you. Unlike many other juices, Acai juices are normally stored in glass bottles. While this does raise the cost of the juice itself, there is a reason for the manufactures doing it in this manner. The main reason that this juice does not come in plastic bottles is that preserving the berry and its full nutrients cannot be done with a plastic bottle. Plastic bottles are unfortunately subject to a fair amount of leeching and glass bottles are not. That is why many manufactures require glass bottles for their juices.

File-Sharing Networks Hit by Comcast Agreement

Sam — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 14:57:34 +0000

“Net neutrality” is not something that the average Internet user worries about when they cannot sleep at night. But following the recent agreement between Comcast and the US 9th Circuit Court, it is an issue that threatens to affect just about everybody who has a computer and an Internet connection.

Until this agreement was reached, there had been no restrictions placed on content, sites, or platforms that users accessed on the Internet. Users were able to access any file-sharing network, like Ares Vista, and were free to download music, video, and other files, without giving it a second thought.

But now, Internet Service providers like Comcast and Verizon, will be able to favor their own networks over competitors like Ares Vista and iTunes. They will have the power to slow down popular networks like Ares Vista, yet still allow their own – such as VCast run by Verizon – to operate freely with no restrictions. Users may well discover that they are being charged a premium to use popular file sharing networks such as Ares Vista.

This is of course disastrous for consumers as they will be financially penalized for choosing to use file-sharing networks not being run by their Internet Service Providers.

There is a discussion on Ares about its legality. Read the complete details here: Ares: Is it no charge or illegal?

Ares P2P – Where Can I Go For Free Music Downloads?

Sam — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 23:44:34 +0000

I am tired of buying whole CDs just for one or two songs, so I have decided that I am going to start downloading just the songs that I really want to have. However, I am not really sure where the best place to go is for music downloads. Can anyone recommend a good website that I could use for this? I think that it would be nice if I could get the music for free, but I am not sure whether or not this is ever legal or how to go about doing it. I have heard of people doing it though.
