On a somewhat seperate note, it infuriates me some of the advertisements online which are actually pure cons. You’ve probably seen one for the acai berry diet. I know they are cons but decided to click through to see what actually happens. I got taken to some fake blog about some woman who’d done the diet and it was amazing and worked. Then offered a ‘free’ trial from the Acai Burn website. Having filled out the form which supposidly calculates if you are eligible for the free triaI, the page indicated I was below normal BMI but still offered me the deal! I tried to navigate away and a pop up box came up with a ‘live assistant’ saying don’t go and trying to offer me deals.

This is our transcript below, which I found quite amusing. It’s just infuriating when they are ripping off millions of people, but then again if someone falls for it they should really know better! It’s obviously a computer ‘talking’ to me but the results are still amusing:
