Advanced Wellness Research, Inc Scam, Fraud, Marketing company, Pyrimid Scheme Miamin Beach Florida

Hello:
This is a scam, we also got scammed by this company. My wife ordered this free trial product. She got the product after the 14 day trial period. She placed the order on February 25, 2009 and received the product on March 27, 2009. She tried the product for 2 days and got sick and started to have abdominal cramps and vomiting. Then she called to cancel the product on April 6th, 2009. She got connected to some guy in a foreign country and could not understand him.

She made it clear that she needs to cancel the product. She got the order cancellation number (CAN#: 4320504) and sent unused product back. On April 10th I saw my credit card statement and saw three charges (2/25/9 for $4.99; 3/13/9 for $78.81; and on 3/30/9 for $83.80). This time I called the company and got connected to some guy in India, who became agitated and refused to credit the account.

Please be careful, as this company or individuals are clearly a marketing compnay (like a typical pyramid scheme) and hides behind layers of traps. I will wait one week and file a lawsuit in Superior Court and a complaint with Department of Consumer Affairs. Anyone reading this and similar other comments / blogs should stay away from this scam and write their experiences to help prevent innocent person being taken advantage of by this company.

I agree this company "www.advancedwellnessresearch.com" is a fraud and a scam. I had the unpleasant experience with this company also. I was connected to their customer service center in India (called BPO which is business process outsourcing). The customer service will not provide any information about this company ie their mailing address, owner of the company or any other managers information, but keep arguing about how good the product is, keep saying cannot issue complete credit, however...etc etc.

The way to find out information is to to contact the Department of Consumer Affairs in Illinois and Florida and any other state that you live in. This way different Attorney General's Offices can file a joint lawsuits and hopefully get this company out of business. Further, now you can also file a direct lawsuit in your own state (go to your states, county court house website to obtain infomation about how to file lawsuites under the personal and longarm jurisdiction of the county court over any internet frauds and scams). I hope you stay firm and do the right thing and dont buy anything over internet (its not cheap or convenient but full of headaches and frustrations)
