Get free money from the "Airborne" fraudsters
   
Ever hear of "Airborne" brand anti-cold medicine? You know, the stuff "created by a school teacher" that claims to cure and prevent colds?

Well, as you can guess, their claims are complete crap. Airborne is snake oil of the first order. They made up phony clinical tests. The FTC sued them and they agreed to a settlement.

You can get reimbursed for up to six purchases without proof of purchase online here <www.airbornehealthsettlement.com/index.htm >

Please get some money from these frauds. They have literally stolen millions, now hit them back in their pocketbook.

13. Thank you for your posts in this thread.
   
It's refreshing to see someone actively trying to think rationally about the world around them.

That's a rare behavior these days, even on DU (as evidenced by some of the posts in this thread - "I don't care what science says - I believe! So there! My opinion is just as good as yours, even if it isn't backed up by any facts or even a logical train of thought! How dare you insult my just-as-good-as-yours-opinion by pointing out its irrationality!"

Yeah, it's refreshing to see someone trying to steal money.  This is why you don't agree with homeowners killing thieves!  You would ALL be dead!

So stealing from someone else is the answer...the level of hypocrisy displayed by these fools is mind boggling.

Requesting a reimbursement for which you are not entitled would make you a "fraudster", wouldn't it? Your recommendation is dishonest and unethical.

Post #14 out of 27 posts.  This is the ONLY post saying it is wrong to file for money you didn't spend on the company being sued.  How sad it that?

No one at the DUmp who expresses much sense or responsibility has a very high post count.
They usually don`t get a chance to get many more after they do either.
