There are certain tricks that the majority of diet pill companies use to convince you that their product is the best one on the market. To a regular consumer, they aren’t so obvious. But to one who has reviewed hundreds of diet pills, these sketchy tactics stick out like a sore thumb. And I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to buy something that goes into my body from a company that engages is dishonest marketing. The following tactics are things that you should look out for when buying diet pills.

1. You’ve seen them on nearly every diet pill site you’ve been to - before and after photos. Te problem with before and after photos is that they are often nothing more than photos before and after the person stuck out their gut and shrugged their shoulders. Sometimes, if you look close enough, you’ll realize that they aren’t even the same person. Other times they use the same photos for multiple diet pills. Sounds fishy? It is. So while the fact that they have them doesn’t mean that they′re a shady company, it just means that you shouldn’t be too believing of them either.

2. What’s easier than creating a fake before and photo? Creating a fake testimonial. Again, I’m not saying that testimonials are bad, I’m just saying that anyone can make them up so don’t base any decisions on how many or how great their testimonials seem to be. A marketer can sit down at computer for 5 minutes and leave with a whole page worth of convincing testimonials from all over the nation.

3. Another common thread in many diet pills’ websites are the sky high promises of fast and amazing results. Many try to tug at your emotions and get you to buy. Never buy a product on whim or without researching it first. If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

4. The main thing that I base my diet pill reviews on is the ingredients of the pill. As such, I like to see research backing up the included ingredients. What you often see, however, is that diet pills cite these studies on the ingredients and try to convince you that those studies were on their actual diet pill.

5. Last but not least (in fact, this one’s the worst) is the autoship program. Some companies use autoship programs, which is fine as long as you know that you are enrolling in one (and autoship program is where they mail you product every month and charge your credit card). But we’ve seen more and more companies lately offer a ‘free trial’ to get your credit card info and then automatically enroll you in the autoship without you knowing (technically it was in the terms and conditions, but they are hoping you don’t actually read that fine printed thing). So watch out. It’s one of the worst scams that we’ve seen in a while related to diet pills.

So when shopping for diet pills, keep an eye out for these common tricks. Of course, not all diet pills are bad. You can certainly find quality diet pills made by good companies.
