Internet Pharmacy Scam Alert...
With the growing popularity of
Canadian Internet Pharmacies (Links:
Canadian Internet Pharmacy News,
Canadian Internet Pharmacy Directory) with American citizens (because generally,
they can buy their prescription drugs from Canada much cheaper than they
can from pharmacy companies located within their own country)... a
scam/fraud has emerged that you need to be vigilant of if you plan on
doing business with a
Canadian Pharmacy... (SEE ALSO:
Govt. of Canada
Internet Pharmacy warning).
What's been happening is; overseas internet companies
(and possibly some companies from within the USA) have been email marketing their pharmacy products to American citizens... and here's the scam:
they are pretending to be Canadian Online Internet Pharmacies, when in fact they
are not.
The SCAM WORKS LIKE THIS:
(A) the scam artist sends emails touting his/her
online pharmaceuticals.
(B) the email is disguised to make it look like it's
originating from a Canadian Web Site.
(C) the scam artist makes it very difficult for the
reader to see that the email is not coming from the purported Canadian
Web Site.
(D) when the reader clicks on the link to go to the
web site... it actually takes them to an overseas web site (so far, most
of the one's I've seen point to European web sites).
(E) the scam artist not only makes it very difficult
for the reader to see actually where the email is truly originating
from... but the scam artist also makes it very difficult for the reader
to actually see the true location/ownership of the web site.
That's a quick summary of the main scam you need to be
aware of.
Of course, the dangers of purchasing
product from these phony pharmacies is pretty obvious; you don't know
who your really dealing with, and you don't know what your really
purchasing... because, if these scam artists are willing to fraudulently
pose as a Canadian Internet Pharmacy, they probably wouldn't be to
adverse to shipping you fraudulent product either.
It is very important that you know exactly which company
you are purchasing from when purchasing your prescription medication via
the internet... I recommend taking a personal trip to the Pharmacy you
intend to do business with, even if that means traveling long distance
(just for your initial prescription & purchase).
So, if you ever receive an email from GVRD.COM touting Pharmaceutical products,
that email is a phony and a fake...
GVRD.COM does not, and has never been engaged in the selling or sale
or Pharmacy products.
