Just wanted to point out that the cartoon weight loss advert at the top of BnB (it's refusing to pop up for me now so can't get a screenshot) leads to a well-known scam. Any chance of blocking the ad so that mums who are feeling a vulnerable about their post-pregnancy weight aren't scammed out of hundreds of pounds? https://acaiberrysite.com/beware-of-free-trial-offers-for-acai/
 
Is this a specific site you know of or are you implying all Acai Berry sites are scams?

Are you saying this specific adverts website is known as a scam (also trying to get the link up to view myself)?
 
I have no idea about other acai berry sites but the two linked to from this advert (Beri Lean Slim Ultra and Lean Slim Cleanse) are definitely scams. You sign up for a free trial and just pay postage (at no point do you see the terms and conditions unless you actually go looking for them yourself) but the company then uses your card details to take monthly payments which you have "agreed" to unless you cancel. If you do try to cancel your free trial order then they go ahead and take the money anyway unless you block your card.
