Press Release Summary: Infomercial Scams (www.infomercialscams.com/scams/direct_buy_scams/start/00000) where you can learn more about your favorite products advertised on TV
Press Release Body: Much of the information you are about to read is shocking but true. Please use the information outlined in this report as a tool to educate yourself and others. I\'ll begin by giving you some background information on how an infomercial is produced and the costs involved.
Background Info
From start to finish an infomercial must have sufficient profit margins, wide appeal, and must be easy to demonstrate on television. Products that sell for $19.95 or less will do better with a shorter infomercial. A product that sells for more than $19.95 will do better with a longer infomercial.
How to Avoid Rip-offs
1. Do research.
Some infomercial products live up to their claims and some don\'t. All infomercial products appear to work when they are displayed on TV. Infomercial ratings and reviews will ultimately save you time and money.
2. Don\'t touch that dial.
Avoid using the 1-800 number or website mentioned on an infomercial. Usually, the numbers and websites that you see on TV are contracted out to telemarketing firms and distribution companies who may not have the consumer\'s best interest in mind. Again, you may or may not be buying from the people you think you\'re buying from. Instead, try to purchase the product from a reputable third party distributor.
3. Use a credit card.
Only use a credit card to pay for infomercial products, especially if you decide to buy from a television advertisement. If you run into a problem with a product or company, you can dispute a credit card charge and have your money back within a week. Simply call the 1-800 number on the back of your credit card and speak to any customer service representative about your problem. Also, you do not need fraud protection on your credit card to get a refund. All credit card companies have fraud divisions that can help.
If a payment is made by check, debit card, or by bank account (routing number), you will more than likely have to close the account and reopen a new one. This will surely stop any unauthorized payments.
