BBB warns of miracle weight-loss scams

During this “fresh start” time of year, many find it hard to ignore the barrage of online advertisements for weight-loss pills, patches and creams. They claim to be endorsed by Oprah and Dolly, to be backed up by news stories from reputable sources, to have hundreds of glowing reviews from people just like you. Importantly, they claim to have a “free trial offer” or to provide miraculous results within days without dieting or exercising. Your Better Business Bureau (BBB) warns: The only miracle that will occur will involve your money’s magical disappearance.
