Description
A new, natural product that mimics the prescription medication, Mounjaro was advertised on Facebook. I clicked to the site and listened to the entire video claiming that an endocrinologist at Yale University had developed a product that was unofficially called the "pink salt trick." The video was done by Oprah Winfrey and the doctor who supposedly developed the product and had multiple people attesting to its weight loss capabilities. However, the video was apparently totally AI generated and completely fake. Oprah Winfrey and the Yale doctor have both posted disclaimers online, saying they have no knowledge of the product and certainly did not endorse it. On the video, the doctor talked about her partnership with the lab manufacturing it, where the ingredients were coming from, etc. The video is so well done that it is totally believable. They list the ingredients that are in LipoMax. However, when the product arrived, non of these ingredients are listed. It is just a supplement with no particular impact on weight loss. And although they advertised a guaranteed no-hassle refund in the first 60 days if for any reason you are not satisfied, the return policy is definitely a hassle and says they have to decide if they will give you a refund. Before I understood that this was a scam, I went back to order some of the product for my husband, but then it was call Burn Jaro. So I order the Burn Jaro. Now I think it is called Slim Jaro. So basically, I was scared twice. I am embarrassed by being so taken in, but the video is a masterful AI production.
