No one wants to catch the H1N1 Swine Flu. And just like any disaster, the swine flu is a scare that has brought the crooks out, ready to take our money, like leeches in the swamp.
It shouldn't surprise any of us. Yet, thousands of people will spend their hard earned money on some bogus product that 'guarantees" to either protect them from getting the swine flu, or will help cure it. Most of these fraudulent products are being sold on the Internet. They range from shampoos to vaccines to acai berries to "kits" that are promoted to help you prevent you from getting the swine flu.
The FDA has risen to the occasion and has developed a website that will help you check out any of the products you may find, to help you confirm the product can, or won't, be helpful to you. I was surprised to learn that some of the products are actually used medically for other applications, but are not approved for swine flu applications.
Please protect your wallet from these crooks. Financial times are tough enough without wasting your money.
