White Smile USA Warns Public on Teeth Whitening Scams
White Smile USA, Inc., a leader in the teeth whitening industry is warning the public to be wary of online teeth whitening scams.
Atlanta-based White Smile USA issued a warning today regarding the much publicized teeth whitening scams that have affected tens of thousands of unsuspecting consumers.
"These in-your-face ads are everywhere you look online. They point to fake blogs that proclaim these amazing methods for teeth whitening. What really happens is the consumers sign up unknowingly for an auto ship program of inferior products. To add insult to injury, these folks spend hours trying to resolve these charges but they don't know who to call." stated Charles Barfield, CEO of White Smile USA.
Barfield continued, "White Smile USA is a reputable company with over 200,000 happy customers. It frustrates us to no end to see our industry blemished with these fraudulent companies that take advantage of consumers. Simply put, these companies amount to organized crime. They create shell companies that are subsidiaries of other shell companies. Consumers try to cancel these bogus monthly charges, but find themselves in customer service "hell" where no one helps.”
Barfield offers a few tips for consumers looking for teeth whitening products:
1) If you can’t pick up the phone and speak with a live person, don’t purchase the products.
2) Search the BBB before you purchase any online product. If they have any unaddressed cases, be wary.
3) Make sure the company has at least a few locations and a proven track record. Virtual teeth whitening companies are probably getting their products from inferior sources to maximize their profits.
4) Check with your dentist before starting any whitening product.
