I really think 's legal reps should come down on this guy HARD Barb who also wrote the official board moderator about it but got no response Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TQ got back to me about the cruise e-mail. She said that > " Malibu Naturals is a distributor of the Tae Bo tapes. That's all. > doesn't endorse a weight loss program or supplements. " Susi, Thanks for letting us know. After re-reading the e-mail, that's what I kind of figured, because the way they word it is " now, from the people who brought you the Tae-Bo tapes " or something like that. It never actually says Blanks takes these products. But, whoever sent that e-mail should be ashamed of themselves. >> I agree with you , it can seem confusing. That's what I pointed out in my EM to TQ. " Tae-Bo " and " Blanks " are the key phrases these days and if you don't really take time to read or listen, things can end up being taken out of context. So just by seeing his name people might think it's something that he takes or try to turn it into something that it's not. TQ said she'd post on the boards and help clear this up.

This guy is beginning to bug everyone into Taebo (first our list, then TQ's site - what next?) and is misrepresenting himself as one of 's legit businesses >> sadly, I'm sure they will hook some folks and make some money off them. I'm not so sure the disclaimer TBQ wrote on the boards will be a deterrent but can understand the need not to completely slam the company if they distribute TB tapes. However, how far are its unethical sales reps allowed to go before having the TB plug pulled? They are trying to get rich riding on 's coat tails, plain and simple. The practices I have seen them do loses all credibility in my mind. Barb who would prefer it if TB tapes were not distributed by such folks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
