"The acai berry, a native of the Brazilian rainforest, has been labeled as the world's newest superfood due to the high level of antioxidants and fatty acids it contains. Celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey and Rachel Ray have featured discussions about acai berries on their shows, creating a surge in demand for the fruit, with many people turning to the Internet to order acai berry products. However, free-trial acai scams have flooded the Web and consumers have lost money.
The Better Business Bureau (BBB) issued a warning about acai free trial offer scams on January 6. Online fraudsters tempt Web surfers with offers of free trials, but when people try to cancel their orders, they find themselves signed up for more acai products than they bargained for.
BBB spokesman Steve Cox said, "Many businesses across the country are using the same selling model for their acai products: they lure customers in with celebrity endorsements and free trial offers, and then lock them in by making it extremely difficult to cancel the automatic delivery of more acai products every month."
Among the companies employing this tactic is FX Supplements, which offers a "risk-free" trial of its acai products, with the buyer told he or she only has to pay for shipping and handling.
If consumers do not cancel subscriptions within the trial period, they find themselves with monthly deliveries of bottles and credit card bills of $85.90 each time. The trial period typically lasts only 10 to 14 days from the date the order is placed.
Central Coast Nutraceuticals, which has been given an F grade by the BBB, has chalked up more than 1,400 complaints with the BBB serving Central, Northern and Western Arizona.
Touting the weight-loss benefits of acai, the company again lures buyers in with a free trial of products, ranging from supplements to tea. Customers who don't cancel their free trial within an allotted time are then billed $40 a month. "
The only acai supplements I recommend Supersupplement's which produces "A Perfect Acai". They are leaders in Acai supplements, they deal honestly and offer competitive prices on top qualility acai products. I am sure there are some other good companies, but these two I vouch for wholeheartedly.

Hi, i have a bottle of Monavie Acai juice. I don't see apricot in the ingredients. I do see wolfberry which is in the nightshade family. Nightshade foods are toxic and cause arthritis. They don't bother some people in small amounts. (tomatoes, potatoes, egg plant,and peppers.) I was taking Monavie and ended up with painful swollen joints. Also my thinking was foggy for the whole day. I just took 2 oz. Somethings are beneficial by itself or with another but put them all together and you change the chemistry.There are other ingredients i question in this product. Learn before ingesting.
I am a Freelance writer and have been into this business for a quite long time. Sir, I have been working on RAC and DP mainly for the last 2 years.
But sir, the $$$s i had been able to make is very less as compared to my work. So this time I have taken a different way to approach potential buyers. I have followed your Website through Ezinearticles.com. I am saying this only to prove that I did a good research to get to you.
So it is pretty sure that you want content published on your blog and other places. And it's pretty obvious that you know how to make use of them which i certainly don't.
So here I am, I have 5 unique and original Articles on Acai Berries written and I want to sell them. I also have articles on other niche like Health, Internet etc. And it's only a sample of the work which I am capable of doing.
Sir before you consider this mail as a Spam, I would like to say one thing. I am student in India. And I have applied to UK Universities for my Masters. But couldn't manage to get a scholarship. So I am working really hard to earn some grands ASAP. And that's why I am searching for steady and potential buyers who are capable of purchasing my articles.
So sir, if you are interested please get back to me, I will show you the samples. And I can provide you at least 10 article daily, of course only if you need. Thanks,
Regards...
