Don’t fall for the UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies scam and reviews falsely claiming Kelly Clarkson, the cast of “Shark Tank,” Oprah Winfrey and other famous people endorsed the “ultra quick” product. Clarkson and the others have zero involvement with weight loss gummies products, including UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies, BurnWell Keto ACV Gummies, Fit Flare Keto ACV Gummies and others. Also, if you’re wondering “does it work,” then no, I can tell you these products do not work. Don’t buy this product or any other keto gummies for weight loss anywhere online, including Amazon.com, Vita Hot Deals, Vitamin Place, Walmart.com and other websites.
For many years, scammers promoted various CBD and keto products with Clarkson’s name and the names of other celebrities. Sometime in either 2023 or 2024, the scammers’ strategy switched to even more complex lies. That new strategy involved the scammers falsely claiming Clarkson announced her support of some keto gummies products while shunning others as scams. However, again, don’t believe the lies. Clarkson never endorsed any CBD or keto gummies. Further, UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies is an outright scam product, even when removing the fake Clarkson endorsement from the picture.
In this story, I’ll dial through everything users need to know about how these scams operate. First and foremost, if you purchased UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies or any other products, I advise you to call your credit card company to request a refund and ensure they block any future monthly subscription charges from the same seller. Also, anyone interested in losing weight should not buy UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies. Instead, simply make a doctor’s appointment. Speak to a genuine medical professional and come up with a realistic weight loss plan. Finally, always remember if an online offer seems too good to be true, it probably is.
How the UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies Scam Begins
I’ve reported on CBD and keto gummies scams for years. This latest product named UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies is simply the latest in a long line of gummy bottles promising miracles. It’s also one of at least dozens falsely claiming Clarkson has involvement with it. She doesn’t.
Like most of these scams, the one for UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies began in a Facebook ad. Meta, the parent company of Facebook, accepted money to allow the scam ads. The ad showed a doctored photo of Clarkson and something about weight loss. That ad then led to a page on the scam website restaurantelago.com promoting fake UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies reviews. According to GoDaddy.com, an unknown scammer registered the website on a domain registrar located in China.
Scammers designed the page on restaurantlago.com to resemble Kelly Clarkson’s Facebook profile. They did this in order to fool users into believing that they remained on Facebook after clicking on the ad.
The Fake Kelly Clarkson Facebook Post
The fake and scammy Kelly Clarkson Facebook post hosted on restaurantlago.com promoted fake UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies reviews. The post also claimed Clarkson said some keto gummies for weight loss products aren’t scams. In fact, all products claiming to be keto gummies for weight loss are outright scams.
The fake Clarkson post began as follows:
Kelly’s Keto Scam Apology Sale! Get authentic products at half price + FREE gifts for a limited time only. Don’t miss out on this unbeatable offer from the queen of ketosis herself!
Ladies and gentlemen, to be honest, since attending the Emmys, I had no idea my weight loss would cause so many problems. My DMs on Instagram are full! I decided to publish an statement on this issue rather than answer each question individually. And clarify the recent slimming pill scams on the market.
I really need to formally explain to you how I did it.
As the grand opening of the Paris Summer Olympics approaches, I have been invited to host the opening ceremony. I am the first champion of “American Idol” and a versatile musician, becoming a globally beloved idol. In order to be in my best shape for the Olympic opening ceremony, I believe I must undergo rigorous training and strict dietary control to alleviate the pressure brought on by weight loss. To achieve this, I have prepared a plan to lose 70 pounds.
While it’s true Clarkson hosted the Olympic opening ceremony at the 2024 Paris Olympics, scammers — not Clarkson — created the fake Facebook post.
The Scam Within the Scam
Again, scammers promoting UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies strategized earlier in 2024 or sometime in 2023 to begin pushing somewhat of a scam within the scam. The new strategy claimed that Clarkson encouraged her fans to see some products as genuine and others as scams. Again, all products called keto gummies for weight loss — UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies included — are outright scams. Further, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) never approved any keto gummies for weight loss — a false claim often displayed in the scams.
The fake Facebook post on restaurantlago.com continued:
Due to my huge changes, there are many scams selling weight loss products under my name, and many of my fans have been deceived, so I will sue the fraud companies that used my photos to recover the defrauded funds for my fans. If you have been scammed, please leave your name and phone number below my main post. After the funds are recovered, I will have my assistant contact you!
Meanwhile, my lawyers have been gathering evidence. Just a month ago, I filed a lawsuit in a California court against dozens of counterfeit ketone companies. The companies were found to have violated the Statute of Frauds, the False Advertising Act, the Consumer Protection Act, the Rhine-Hartley Act, and the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. So these fake keto products will be taken off the shelves soon, and they will be punished accordingly.
…
Finally, I want to say sorry to everyone who has been deceived by the fake keto scam. I did not make it clear what products I used. But don’t worry, all criminals will be caught. We are actively cooperating with the police and hope to recover everyone’s funds. Please be sure to buy the “UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies”on our website!
Do not buy any keto gummies for weight loss. Do not believe the UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies reviews scam. Such products do not help with weight loss.
‘Natravor Biotechnology Co., Ltd., USA’
The fake Facebook post about the UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies reviews scam presented a fake certificate about “Natravor Biotechnology Co., Ltd., USA.” The address displayed as, “Centralized Office No. 001, B2035, Building 1, 473 North Jamestown Way, Aurora, CO 80018.” The certificate also showed “Duns Number: 712272622” and “Expiration Date: 2024.12.31.”
The certificate falsely claimed “Natravor Biotechnology Co., Ltd., USA” registered with the FDA under “U.S. FDA Registration Number: 17264226822.”
A simple search of the FDA website found no results for “Natravor” or the registration number.
As with other past weight loss gummies products, I uncovered no helpful details about the people who created UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies. I found no names for a founder or staff members, nor could I locate an office address, career opportunities or anything else that might lend credibility to a company.
UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies on Google
As of Aug. 13, 2024, clicking on any links in the fake Facebook post on restaurantlago.com did not lead me to a website for UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies. Rather, the links led straight to Google. In other words, the scammers apparently intended for users to find the products with a Google search. As I mentioned before, do not buy this product from Amazon.com, Vita Hot Deals, Vitamin Place, Walmart.com or any other website. UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies is an outright scam product.
Again, do not order any keto gummies products claiming consumers can lose weight and “melt fat fast without diet or exercise.” As the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) once correctly published, “If someone tells you that, to lose weight, all you have to do is take their pill, that’s a scam.”
If bought on scam websites, consumers purchasing UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies will be charged hundreds of dollars in monthly subscription fees. If anyone needs a customer service and support phone number for UltraQuick Keto+ACV Gummies, try (855) 485-8926, (888) 484-5688 or (844) 378-9375. Scammers listed these phone numbers for other similar keto gummies products.
The FTC Is Investigating CBD and Keto Gummies Scams
In a bit of good news, the FTC announced in a news release on July 1, “FTC Acts to Stop Unauthorized Billing Scams That Have Taken in Over $200 Million from Consumers. Defendants Allegedly Participated in Unauthorized Billing Scheme Involving CBD and Keto-Related Products.”
The article began:
A U.S. district court in central Florida today unsealed a Federal Trade Commission complaint charging two related groups of defendants with defrauding consumers nationwide by enrolling them, without their knowledge, into continuity plans where they are shipped and charged repeatedly for personal care products that they did not agree to purchase.
The defendants allegedly deceived consumers with ads for “free” CBD and Keto-related personal care products, billing many for products they did not consent to purchase, signing many up for unwanted continuity plans, and debiting money from their bank accounts without prior authorization. In addition, the FTC alleges that some of the defendants laundered credit card payments by setting up bank accounts for shell companies using straw signers.
“These defendants bilked consumers out of millions of dollars by repeatedly charging them for products they never ordered or agreed to purchase,” said Samuel Levine, Director of the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection. “The FTC is committed to aggressively pursuing companies and individuals involved in these unauthorized billing scams.”
