I was coming from a bike ride with my husband when a woman standing on the street corner started complimenting my bike and engaging in personal chatter with me. She asked me if I wanted to try some free wrinkle eye cream and brought me into the store. It all happened so fast and she started talking to me about my life and how we had all these things in common and when she put it on my eyes I was so shocked that it worked that I said yes to purchasing it. She charged me twice for it and before I knew it my credit card was rung up for 1400 dollars for two small vials of eye cream. I was then escorted into a back room area where they were doing treatments on people and they explained to me that they were going to do be doing a red light treatment to help with my forehead lines etc. they started doing the treatment on me and began heckling me saying that it would cost me 12000 to purchase it and they would give me everything for free with it. I went back and forth with them feeling more and more uncomfortable and I eventually go up and left saying I just couldn’t afford that. I told them to hold the product I had purchased so that I could go on my bike ride and come back to get it and they said that was fine but that they had back to back appointments to which when I saw the Israeli man named Mark pull up his calendar it was empty which seemed very odd. After my bike ride I came back to pick up my stuff to which he pulled me into the back room again and said he would do me a favor and sell me the device and everything I wanted for the price of the cheaper device to give me a discount because he could tell I was a good person etc. because I believed that he was being truthful and that the product worked I paid for it with my credit card and they said they would ship it to me at my house because it was too much for me to pack on the plane. I left feeling very off and uncomfortable about the whole experience embarrassed by my spending and told my husband. I chalked it up to being hassled and pressured but that the product was worth it. On my way home I just couldn’t shake the experience and started googling the name of the products and the business only to find so many others who experienced the same thing and were completely scammed. The product is counterfeit, they lie to you about prices and steal your money and your information only to make you feel like a bad person when you try to leave or return it. I tried to reach out to them today to ask about my shipment but the numbers don’t work and there’s no response anywhere. Thank gosh I paid with American Express who is going to dispute this charge for me but we need to remove this company from Jackson and anywhere else. They prey on women and their insecurities and force you into a very difficult experience especially if you’re conflict averse. I’m horrified and embarrassed. They must be stopped.
