It is the night of Nov. 10, 2022, and I noticed this article on Google News that claims mega church pastor Joel Osteen endorsed supposed weight loss CBD gummies or maybe even keto gummies and that the TV show was somehow involved. This is a scam. Osteen never endorsed these products. Real quick, please click the like button, the thumbs up button, it’ll help me out. Here’s what’s happening. Scammers in India and perhaps other countries are using Joel Osteen’s image and likeness without authorization and names of CBD gummies companies without permission. As you can see the article came from Tribune India and had the scam headline, “Joel Osteen CBD Gummies REVIEWS ----- ---- CBD Gummies Warning Exposed?” In the article, it claimed that there was a product named “Joel Osteen CBD Gummies.” However, this was not real. I clicked the link in the article and it took me to gummies-smilz.com, and that’s smilz as in Smilz. The page said nothing of Joel Osteen endorsing CBD gummies, because again, it was a scam. As I said before, scammers were using this product name without permission. Basically, be on the lookout for fake celebrity endorsements for various products that claim they’ll help you lose weight or will help you overcome some disease. There are so many scammers out there that are trying to convince people that Oprah Winfrey and other big-name celebrities endorsed CBD and keto gummies, and it’s all lies. I’ve done some reporting about all of this in the past. This is just another update to this world of CBD and keto gummies scams. If you want to see a list of products that a TV show actually endorsed, check out the link in the pinned comment down below. As always, I hope you got something out of this video. I’m making all of these videos on my own time on nights and weekends to help people. There’s just not enough time during the day to publish reporting about all of the scams and clickbait ads that are happening out there, so I am spending my free time to help people out, so again, please click the Like button, the thumbs up button, and that will tell Google and YouTube my video has some value, and maybe then it’ll rank highly, and therefore someone might be able to receive help before being scammed by this scam or any other out there online.
