Prostate Plus: Scam

FRAUD ALERT

Why is it that just when one scam finally runs its course, another one immediately surfaces to take its place ? Is it just a coincidence or is it part of a very unethical master marketing plan ?

"Prostate Plus" is that "new kid in town" and I must admit . . . their marketing plan is brilliant and very well executed . . . but isn't that what you would expect from a scam ?

Here is how it works. They promote their product on a highly advertised site called "Prostate Pill Reviews", which in their words claims to have

"compiled a listing of various prostate products and have assessed their overall legitimacy based on their ingredients including quantities, related documentation that validates the product's claims, product guarantee (return/refund policy), price and manufacturer's reputation. Based on these criteria, we attempt to make an honest judgment of whether these products will actually be effective in providing prostate relief."

And as you can probably see where I am going . . .
"Prostate Pill Reviews" has given their highest rating to:

drum roll please . . . "Prostate Plus".

Ask yourself this question . . . Why would a supposedly impartial, non profit reviewing organization pay to advertise their site ?

The answer is obvious . . . to promote their own product, which they rate number one!

The websites for both "Prostate Pill Reviews" and "Prostate Plus" are beautifully designed and really look very professional and legitimate . . . but the BIG glaring problem is that there does NOT seem to be any real organization called "Prostate Pill Reviews" . . . at least NONE that I was able to find ANYWHERE.

Does that make any sense at all ?

Their site has NO contact phone number, NO email address, NO Doctor names AND lists NO credentials what-so-ever AND the registration of both domain names are hidden behind a privacy proxy.

Now if any of this sounds familiar . . . it is because this scam is identical to that perpetrated by "The Prostate Pill Report" (and their various other aliases) where they pretended to be an independent lab, yet rated their own product "Prostavar" number one. This scam was widely exposed, as was their F-Rating with the Better Business Bureau.

I believe, but can not write with absolute certainty, that both of these scams are being run by the same principals. They may have restructured their business entities and created a new product, but it still reaks to me of the same M.O. Furthermore, take a look at the 2 websites . . . both designs look very similar as if the same person designed both:

And finally all sites participating in both scams hide behind the same privacy proxy.
(THE EXACT SAME ONE)

It is worth noting that even though there is no domain name registration info available for Prostate Plus, the website customer care page does list Everest Nutrition Corporation as a contact, with the implication being that they produce this product. They also produce zenerx which is touted as being a penis enlarger /male enhancer.

Most people know that penis enlargers don't work and also think that any company that produces and promotes one has very questionable ethics at best. Everest Nutrition Corporation and zenerx have been exposed as a scam in both:

The Ripoff Report

and in

Dr Sahelian's scathing review

Enough about the companies . . . let's look at some of their statements:

1) They claim that their product "is the #1 Choice in Prostate Treatment"

What is their basis for making this claim ?
Does anyone believe that they actually went to the trouble and expense of doing a survey of all prostate products sold and found that Prostate Plus out sold all the others ? . . .
I don't know about you, but I think NOT.

2) "We do not include any scientific data from clinical trials or studies whose research would verify any of the product's claims."

This is a totally false statement. There are tons of cited studies on our website which back up the claims that our customers already know are true.

3) Our product "contains only one ingredient scientifically proven to be critical to the effectiveness of prostate health supplements; Zinc (7.5 mg) - Sadly, Zinc is the least prevalent substance in the product, which will certainly impact on its overall effectiveness in treating prostate health issues. Prostate Miracle® also contains Selenium, Beta Sitosterol and Vitamin D3, substances whose effects on prostate health are inconclusive."

This is a totally bogus statement on so many levels. . . it is hard to respond to:

First of all the most important ingredient for prostate health is beta sitosterol which we provide in the correct amount to be effective. Their ingredients page indicates that even though they say beta sitosterol's effectiveness is inconclusive they do include it in theirs, but they do NOT indicate how much they include. . . probably because they do not enough to be effective.

Secondly, they say zinc is the only ingredient in Prostate Miracle® that is important in prostate health, but then they imply that 7.5 mg is not enough. The truth is that 7.5 mg is the optimal amount . . . too much could be toxic and too little not effective. It does beg to question . . . How much zinc does Prostate Plus contain ? Their site does not specify the amount!

Now what about price ?
The single bottle price for Prostate Plus is $39.95.
The single bottle price for Prostate Miracle® is $25.95

Bottom Line:

Prostate Miracle® has a proven track record of success for over 10 years, has helped thousands upon thousands of men, and is produced and distributed by a company you can trust. Yes it is true that we are tooting our own horn. but at least we are not pretending to be an impartial reviewing agency. Why would anyone try an overpriced, unproven "Johnny-come-lately" product such as Prostate Plus, marketed by such an obvious scam?

Update July 28, 2012

It''s been about a year since Google forced this unethical company to take down their deceptive advertisement. I just noticed today that they are at it again, this time with a new web address: prostatepillsoverview.com. Still infringing on the Prostate Miracle® trademark to promote their cheap imitation product.

Update Sept 26, 2012

Well once again, Google forced them to take down their deceptive ad, which infringed on the Prostate Miracle® trademark. Today, I see that this unethical company has launched a new attack campaign, again with unauthorized use of the Prostate Miracle® trademark and copyrighted images plus ridiculous misinformation to promote their product.

It has become clear to me that ALL of these fake pill report sites and the various products which each rates number one, must all be owned by the same unethical company. What a brilliant marketing plan! . . . promote numerous fake pill report sites, each ranking a different product number one. No one would suspect fraud, since each product is different (and the new company/product alias has no apparent connection to the oriignal company's "F" rating with the BBB) . . . funny thing is that they all have the same bogus formula and site design AND each list excludes the number one rated product from the other fake list. I guess it is not really that funny after all . . . It is actually quite sad that so many unsuspecting consumers have been dupped by this fraud.

Prostate Miracle® Advanced Formula has a Money Back Guarantee

Look at any other Prostate Formula out there and ask yourself:

How much Beta Sitosterol does it contain per capsule?
What is the purity and potency of the ingredients?
How many capsules does each bottle contain?
