MaxMan / Musclepharmm / MensDiet scam

This time Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson got ripped using "MaxMan" (possibly in combination with some of the other fake products that I've mentioned before). They didn't, of course, but that's what the scammers want you to believe.

It's a Facebook ad that leads to you an "independent" magazine/website at robwilliams.net (they use many domain names, some of them are listed at the bottom). This website looks identical to the one used in Titanium Pro X except that it's a different product this time. The headline might say something like "Men'sDiet", making it look like it's related to "Men'sHealth" (the legit magazine).

If I decide to proceed and buy a product I will go to the site maxmanpower.eu. But only if it's my first visit! If it's my second visit they will send me to "www.xdating.com", probably because they want to try to cover their tracks (in their minds, you only need to go there once to make the order, no need to come there a second time to look closer at it)

When I proceed to payment I am transferred to PayPal. This means that this is not a credit card scam. So what option is left? Well, they will take your order and your money, but they may not send you the product. Of course, I have not made an order myself and tried to send them money so I can't know for sure. But this concept has SCAM written all over it. They lie and deceive you on their web pages, so there is no reason for me to believe that they will not steal my money - if I send it to them.

Also, ask your self: What are the ingredients in this product? Does it say on the web site? Well, I could not find it. Why would anyone want to buy a product that they don't know what is or what it contains?

A related website called musclepharmm.com appears to be selling supplements. However, when they ask for your credit card information you are not on a SECURE web site. This means that they don't have a valid SSL certificate. ALL (no exception) serious internet shops who accepts credit card payments have an SSL certificate. An SSL certificate makes sure that the information you send them is encrypted so that no one else can "see" the information and abuse it. However, even if they had a valid certificate, they could still abuse your information. Do you want to give your credit card details to people who already has lied and deceived you? Would you trust them?

They have the domain name "musclepharmm.com"... Did you see the TWO m's at the end? They're trying to make you think that they are the legit company called "Muscle Pharm". Another attempt to deceive you.

Read more about Titanium Pro X to learn more (same scammers, probably)

The people behind this scam have posted about 130 videos on YouTube during a month. Each video is related to a different product. Can you imagine how much effort these people put into this? And yet, we don't know their identity.

Take a look, each of these products appears to do wonders for you:



Or you can check it their youtube channel yourself: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdyWbeDOvEs5NLhjv_euvnw/videos

The voice on these videos modified (or computer generated). They don't sound real at all. Why wouldn't they want to use a real voice? In many cases the comments are deactivated. Obviously, they don't want any bad feedback in the comment area.
