Many are now convinced that resveratrol really works and is proving to be a good source of many health benefits. If you have read the positive reports of Dr. Oz on Oprah Winfrey show of the health benefits of Resveratrol, you may finally decide to take advantage of offers on the internet like ‘Free Bottle of Resvertrol‘ and just pay only shipping and handling. If it felt that it was beneficial, then you could and would make it a part of your daily routine. Before you do this, be mindful that there are few unscrupulous suppliers are out there that are short of scamming people around.
Take a look at this story of a real person (identity hidden) who tried one free resveratrol trial offer:
“On November 26, 2008, I placed my order with an on-line shop. During the day, I received an email from my bank alerting me to a charge on my account from a United Kingdom business. It freaked me out, and then I saw the pending amount of $1.95 and $4.00 and the associated Resveratrol Offer name. Ok, overcharged by $2.00. I was told the order would arrive by November 30th. I was not concerned when it didn’t arrive then, knowing it was at least enroute. It ultimately arrived on December 3rd. I didn’t bother opening the padded envelope at that time as I was going out of town for 7 days. On December 11th, I received another ALERT email from my bank regarding a $87.13 charge to my account! My heart was racing – had someone in the UK gotten my account information? No, it was this Resveratrol Offer charging my account. I immediately called their customer service and spoke with a very smug man who informed me that I had signed a contract for a monthly delivery at a cost of $87.13. I cancelled my supposedly future orders and obtained a RMA number to return this merchandise. He would not tell me if I would be credited the money that they took from me, and I will state that I saw no such information on their web site when I placed this order for the ‘Free Bottle’. When I reviewed the site again, I found that one must click on an obscure tab to learn that if the free bottle is not returned or your credit card info is not cancelled with this company within 15 days, I would automatically be charged this amount every month.”
So be careful. This time frame is from the date of order, which for the above person was November 26th, and December 10th was his deadline? How would one even know if a product produced positive results within a 7 day period? He ad not even opened the bubble envelope containing the resveratrol. He immediately put it in box, marked it up with the RMA return number, and shipped it back on Priority Mail with signature confirmation. It was received and signed for by that company, but his bank account was charged again on December 13th $2.61 for some international transaction fee.
Some of these may not be intentional internet scams, but one must read the terms and conditions very clearly, before trying out those free trial offers out there. If you are not clear, phone or email them up, and if they remain unclear, go for more reputable distributors.
