Scam Description
The attached screenshot is the product I ordered and paid for, after seeing a Facebook ad about a micro-CPAP device to treat sleep apnea. The product I received was labeled as an “air purifier” without any product care and use instructions, warnings, indications, etc. It was made of cheap plastic, and none of the claims on the website or the product box were accurate to what the product actually was. There was no microblower to provide, as it even said on the package, “continuous positive airway pressure.” The package also said it had “PM 2.5 Filtering,” but the cheap foam and mesh inside far from meets that filtration criteria.
This company preys on people with a legitimate and serious medical condition, and provides a fraudulent product that may even do harm, depending on the chemicals in the product’s “filters.”
I did receive a refund when I confronted them with their lies, but this company is potentially dangerous. CPAP machines are expensive, and this device is priced to sell and doesn’t do anything it claims.
