Description

I watched an ad that popped up - I think it was on Instagram. It was a video of Bill Gates talking about research he supposedly funded and directed to find a treatment/medication to preventative and reverse dementia/Alzheimers called MemoPryl it was a long, detailed video, which offered FALSE hope regarding this. horrible disease. My mother died of Alzheimers in her mid - to late 70's after years of horrific symptoms and my father took care of her - alone - during those years. The video of Bill Gates appeared so authentic and the research and product development appeared so believable. Swayed by my fear of developing this horrible disease, I foolishly, immediately placed and order for MemoPryl without doing further research. A follow-up video regarding my order showed a product with a label that had a different product name on it! That's when I realized something was wrong. Admittedly too late, I did some research. Since then I've been trying every way possible to cancel the order, for which I just received an email telling me it has shipped! Please advise if there is any way I can get a refund!
