Whey wasn’t a scam. THIS is

This is a public service reminder by LXN.

A follow up post to my last post about Whey.

True to the title, Whey isn't a scam. But this

is a BIG-assed scam.

What is it you may ask. Ok, ok, I get it, my readers ARE a little slow sometimes. See how right after the picture I said it was a BIG ASS SCAM? Yep, that's what it is.

You could at least guess from the logo that it has something to do with lame mangosteens.

XanGo^® Juice: A Delicious Dietary Supplement

"A delicious dietary supplement, XanGo Juice harnesses the nutritional power of the whole mangosteen fruit through a potent proprietary formula. Just one to three ounces each day unleashes a concentrated rush of xanthones—a vigorous family of phytonutrients. The best part: sensational flavor that'll keep you coming back for more and more.

XanGo ensures exceptional product quality standards from the mangosteen tree to the bottle of XanGo Juice. Each bottle meets strict ISO standards and passes hundreds of quality tests before the premium dietary supplement is served to consumers worldwide."

Quoted from the Official XanGo® website

They are a private multi-level marketing company. That means you would have uplines and downlines. They STRONGLY advise you to join as an agent, once you've been scammed, they hope you'd go on and scam your friends and family. It's like a lameshit plan to saturate the world with mangosteen juice-dependant zombies by the year 2666.

Now we're done with the Whats. Let's go on with the Whys.

Reader : Aiyah, give you anything you also don't like one lah. So choosy, this don't like, that don't like.

XanGo® claims that their mangosteen-piss juice has "more than 20 health benefits", among which include "anti-inflammatory", "anti-microbial", "anti-fungal", "anti-Bush", "anti-viral", "anti-cancer", "anti-ucer"

*pauses to breathe*

"anti-rhinoviral", "anti-allergic", "anti-Pak Lah", "anti-Christ", "ANTIMONY"

So far there have been NO solid proof that all these "miracles" are true. And the American Cancer Society only succeeded in proving that this juice-from-hell MIGHT have some promise in treating ACNE. Not only that, it has negligible nutritional contents.

If it tasted half as good as my Whey, I'd still drink it. Too bad it tastes like vinegar added with sugar and purple coloring.

Now on to the Hows.

This is the MOTHER of all scams. Each bottle is RM100++. I really don't understand. WHY WOULD anyone believe in the fake claims made by the company? Mark my words, this WILL go down as the BIGGEST legal scam in history.

I bet the CEO of XanGo is sitting on his newly-acquired US$133.7 million private luxury yatch somewhere over the Carribbean, laughing his FAT ass off, a vintage 1870 French Whiskey in one hand, a skanky hooker picked up somewhere off the coast of Jamaica in the other. By now he has probably scammed enough to

• Afford a US$12,000/day executive hooker for the rest of his life and his son's
  
• Change a new luxury yatch every year
  
• Own his own country complete with his own Navy and Army.
  
• Rebuild the Great Wall of China, with wads of $100 bills. Twice.

I urge EVERYONE NOT to fall prey to this scam. If a company claims that its products have miraculous healing "powers", INSIST on seeing proof that their product actually works and is proven scientifically. Do NOT rely on word by mouth. Even if that person is your Ah Ma, Ah Gong, Ah Bu, Ah Pa, Ah Beng, Ah Lian, Ah Tu(pig),Ah Kau(Si Anjing) or whoever. If they've experienced "miracles", it probably the placebo effect playing up, or they could just be too embarrassed to admit that they've been scammed.
