Freebie Scam Offer.

Where is this ad 'on again'?

I had a quick scan on Daily Mail Health section and couldn't see this.

Are you saying that Phil Schofield is advertising this?

Or that his name is being used without his consent (as in the Martin Lewis bitcoin ads)?

Spank

Surely you were tipped off from the use of the word Pharma? not really a word used much in the UK

The ad was on FB under the Mail online banner. None of the links work on the page, and it will be gone by now. I did contact the Mail with the details, but didn't hear back. Phil Schofied's name must be being used without his permission. I have seen three of these ads so far, each using a different celebrity's name.

Just don't look at any ads on Facebook.

This and the Consumer Rights board are littered with threads starting "I bought xxx from an ad on Facebook".

Best advice:

You have got lucky here, in future buy CBD from a reputable seller and dont buy from Facebook.

I am afraid that there are times when one's judgement can be impaired, and this was one of them for me. My wife is on palliative care with stage 4 cancer, and all I could see was an opportunity to obtain a quality product to help her. The good news is that I did receive the oil, anyway. The bank account is one that I use for any online transactions and is only topped up to pay for purchases, including those through Paypal, so I suppose that there was not much chance of a huge loss. Thanks for the advice from all. Much appreciated.

Sad news for you and your wife.

Has the oil worked for her?

Maybe post on the Health board to ask for recommendations for suppliers.

I've noticed H&B have half price double strength CBD oil.

Hello, and thanks for your support. My wife, Rachel, was sent home on a palliative care program three years ago and told that she had a couple of month at most. She had terminated her Chemo treatment as it made her so ill. Anyway, I immediately bought a bottle of hemp-seed oil, and she started to take three tablespoonful a day. The results were amazing. Within a couple of weeks she had recovered to the extent that she was once again mobile and could do many of the things she had been unable to do. I had been told that hemp-seed oil would not help, but it's clear that it did. We then progressed to CBD oil and also Apricot kernels and, so far, she's doing fine. The CBD oil is quite expensive compared to Hemp-seed oil, but I wanted the best. We do buy at H and B and I've just told her about the offer. She sends her thanks. Me too!

Let's hope I can manage to post the latest URL for the above scam. They are still at it!  https://!!!!!!.com/428st32h

No. It corrupts the URL and the page can't be found. They're using the Philip Schofield ad again. I give upl
