Supplement scams are widespread.

Ten red flags

What the agencies say

The FTC and FDA publish scam warnings and urge buyers to report them. Use our verification guide.

If you were scammed

Contact your card issuer immediately, change any passwords entered and report at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.

Buy smart

Read where to buy and the checklist.

A final safety routine

Pause before paying and ask: Can I find the same product through the official route? Does the price look too good to be true? Does the site tell me who runs it? Would I be able to get my money back?

If any answer worries you, stop. Report suspicious sellers to the FTC, tell friends and family, and review your bank statements for unfamiliar charges in the weeks after a risky purchase.
