    just as a side note, a lot of the colon cleansers are actually a big scam. a company called blessed herbs do one, if you do a search for the name and scam, it'll give you loads of info about it. the gist is the stuff you drinks is actually kind of like a jelly, it semi-sets in the colon and the weird goo that you 'pass' is basically like a jelly mould of your colon NOT any bad stuff, plaque or anything else.

    mix the stuff up leave it in a glass and go back a few hours later and you'll see what i mean :)

    as i'm new i can't post a link but search for mucoid plaque scam

    i guess ultimately if it makes soemone feel better and healthier, and they ahve the cash then no harm done to a certain extent, but in my opinion it's not exactly highly rating in the money saving stakes, especially at £75+ a pop (or should that be poop?). maybe better sticking with the 5 a day, exercise, and eating fresh cooked meals instead of pre-prepared c**p full of additives.

    That is Psyllium seed husks with some colour and flavouring. I paid £1.10 for enough to clean out an elephant in KRK grocers in Woodlands rd Glasgow

  • I have contactred the watchdog team, consumergov and complaints commitee so hopefully if we all join forces someone has got to listen and stop this scam going any further

  • @competitionscafe?

    I saw in an old thread that you had a bit of bovver with camerabox and a non-existent Fuji? Some months back, the advice was to small-claims-court them. Did anything come of it?

    If you can't reply here, reply on the contact form at my website strangelyperfect dot tv (I'm currently looking at other scams as you pointed out!), but the general success or whatever that you've had with this could help other people.

    n.b. I've bought cameras recently and have a close friend who will probably be using camerabox. For me, in the end, I never used them and went elsewhere.
