Suspicious health / supplement claims
Signals common to keto-gummy, weight-loss, CBD, and "miracle cure" scam funnels were detected. These products are typically shipped from unregulated sources and double-billed via subscription traps.
- Treat scribehow.com as unverified
Do not enter credentials or send money until you have independently verified the business.
- "Doctors hate this" and "melt belly fat in days" are marketing red flags
No real supplement causes dramatic overnight weight loss, cures chronic illness, or has to hide from "big pharma." These claims are illegal in most countries — legitimate brands simply don't make them.
- Check for hidden subscription billing
Many of these sites ship a "free trial" and then auto-charge your card every month. Read the fine print at checkout, and if you already ordered, call your bank to block further charges and dispute the ones already made.
- OpenReport the product
Report to the FTC (reportfraud.ftc.gov), your country's consumer-protection body, and the MalwareTips scam forum so others searching for the product find the warning.
