AcaVie – More Scam? |
18 Comments |
MonaVie announced that the product that has been reviewed here in the past will change with the addition of AcaVie. Why change it if it was great before? That’s the big question as all the testimonials made it sound able to prevent and cure all kinds of diseases. By changing it, MonaVie acknowledges that it couldn’t have possibly done anything like that.
What is AcaVie?
From MonaVie, we don’t get anything other than marketing, “MonaVie now has a patented brand of acai; it’s called AcaVie, and it’s the most potent form of acai available anywhere in the world. Look for the AcaVie logo on MonaVie premier juice blends, as it’s your personal guarantee that you are getting the most superior acai products ever introduced into the market.”
How do we know it is superior? Well you have to believe the biased word of the manufacturer. Of course Toyota was telling you their cars were superior too before the recalls.
What is the game that MonaVie is playing with AcaVie?
They are giving distributors the ammunition to talk about AcaVie being patented as proof that it’s a quality product. That is not always the case. There are a lot of patented health products that are never tested and proven to be of any benefit to the consumer.
For example, let’s take this patented ArthriSea product. It is Sea Chondroitin and Glucosamine HCL, and it’s name and marketing suggests it may be helpful for arthritis. However, according to Wikipedia:
Due to the popularity of the glucosamine-chondroitin supplement and the apparent lack of reliable information about its usefulness in treating osteoarthritis, the National Institutes of Health funded a study to test the effects of chondroitin and glucosamine on osteoarthritis of the knee. This multicenter, placebo-controlled, double-blind, six month long trial found that glucosamine plus chondroitin had no statistically significant effect on symptoms of osteoarthritis in the overall group of osteoarthritis patients . The control group of patients who took celecoxib (a commonly used osteoarthritis drug) did have a statistically significant improvement in their symptoms. These results indicate that glucosamine and chondroitin do not effectively relieve osteoarthiritic pain in the overall group of osteoarthritis patients.
[The studies are well-cited on Wikipedia for the reader to verify.]
What does ArthriSea have to do with AcaVie?
The conclusion from the above should be obvious. A patent on a product does not make the product any more effective.

your attempt to be a wiseguy simply by spending your money to purchase the key words on Google Ads so that your idiotic nazi, anti-semetic, anti-Christian, and of course anti-mona-vie is so pathetic. You spend a few hundred dollars per month paying for all of the words that any person looking up information on mona vie will see your totally baseless fake website first is sad. White Mona Vie is changing the lives of millions of people, your website and the others that are affiliated with it are the only negative things on the internet relating to mona vie. People are watching you, following you and marking you. You game will soon come to an end so hopefully you will be smart enough to drop your curtains before they are dropped for you. There is nothing but good about mona vie. I can’t imagine what could have possibly wronged you so badly that your sole purpose in life is to make sure your fake website appears ahead of the LEGITIMATE Mona Vie Stories and ads. People like Dr. Oz, Opprah, Dr. Ron Perricone and other physicians certainly are more knowledgeable and credible that a fat slob like yourself with hairs growing out of the grape size moles and warts on your nose. You pathetic piece of human feces.

You realize that I don’t spend any money to purchase any key words on Google Adwords, right? Yes, I’ve never spent a cent, much less the few hundred dollars as you claim.
Way to call out the insults… you had “idiotic nazi, anti-semetic, anti-Christian” all in a row there. However, you have no information to support any of that… in fact none of it could be any more wrong. So it all reflects poorly on yourself (and makes you look like pathetic piece of human feces).
There is nothing baseless or fake about this website. All information in it is well-backed with logic and/or sourced by highly reputable sources.
You must not be familiar with other websites like Purple Horror that are not affiliated with this one and is quite negative about MonaVie. If MonaVie doesn’t want negative stuff said about them, they could start behaving like a reputable company.
Glenn Siesser said, “People are watching you, following you and marking you You game will soon come to an end so hopefully you will be smart enough to drop your curtains before they are dropped for you. There is nothing but good about mona vie.” That sounds like a threat. Threatening people, following them, and marking them… and then following that up with a sentence that contradicts your previous two sentences.
Before you throw out the Oprah card, please realize that Oprah Sued MonaVie, because MonaVie distributors like you are illegally using her name and likeness. So I don’t need to know than them, but it’s clear that I know more than you.

Also Glenn Siesser,
Please stop trying to fraud people by telling lies about MonaVie on Facebook:
If you don’t understand why it is a lie, I would advise you to read: http://www.juicescam.com/monavie-13-fruits/.
I wouldn’t have to write these articles if people like you would actually understand the product you are pushing. Perhaps you should spend less time marking me, and more time building an honest business.

OMG! Glenn you are now a frontrunner in Monavie’s ‘most pathetic ass-clown’ contest, despite some really stiff competition. Nice acceptance speech you made there — you called JS a nazi AND the anti-Christ. Well done you impotent sad little juice-jockey.

Vogel,
I have to give credit to Glenn Siesser in one way. When he tries to scam people, he puts 100% of his effort into it.
I found this article from The New York Times:
Penny Stock Guilty Pleas
I’m sure someone could make the claim that it is not the same Glenn Siesser, despite the name being very unique. For those people I’ll offer up a view of Glenn’s Facebook page that show his ties to New Jersey, where F.D. Roberts is based… and his current location “Delray Beach” being a few miles from F.D. Roberts’ Boca Raton office.
Looks like Glenn Siesser has a history of committing fraud. It is now in the readers’ eyes and mind to be the judge, who is the “pathetic piece of human feces” now? (To use Glenn’s words from above?)
August 1st, 2010 at 7:14 am
Yikes! YOU GO JS!! They don’t know who they are messin’ with!
Also, incredibly timely post. Purple Horror site has a post from someone July 31st, accusing Food Tech & company of lying.
******************************************
Here is a good example of why you negative people get things out of whack. “4 oz of wonder juice is equivalent to 13 servings of fruits/veggies” NO a thousand times NO. Let’s get it right. Monavie is NOT equivalent to 13 servings of fruits/veggies.
MonaVie says “In fact, four ounces of MonaVie feature an antioxidant capacity [ORAC value] equivalent to 13 servings of common fruits and vegetables”.
Food Tech is this truly what MonaVie says? Aussie is this not so? Since both of you know more about MonaVie then the average distributor.
Monavie is talking about antioxidant capacity not Monavie is equal to 13 servings of fruit and vegetables. Do you people see words that are not there?
******************************************
Here is actual PROOF that this is what distributors are saying and that it is exactly what I was told too! Not that MV has the anti oxidant capacity of 13 servings etc. but a lot of distributors go with lie #1!!
August 1st, 2010 at 9:10 am
Ooohhh snaps JS! That was a brilliant find. It raises the question once againwhether there is a single honest person in that entire organization. The more we research, the more the answer seems to be a resounding HELL NO! But they do seem to have have an abundance of fraud artists, child rapists, tax cheats, and stock swindlers like Glennn. What a F-ing loser!
August 1st, 2010 at 9:15 am
They should all be marched through town wearing dunce caps while the crowd boos and hisses and pelts them with rotten acai berries.
August 1st, 2010 at 9:22 am
Oh crap. I just checked out Glenn’s other website. His specialty, aside from stock swindling and stealing juice money from the old ladies at church, is selling giant inflatable advertising. http://www.corpmarklogo.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=21&Itemid=3
I couldn’t help but think of this classic Family Guy moment.

Classic! I wonder if there will be a whacky, wailing inflatable tube man likeness of Hartless & Larceny at the next convention!

Glen Siesser states “your attempt to be a wiseguy simply by spending your money to purchase the key words on Google Ads so that your idiotic nazi, anti-semetic, anti-Christian, and of course anti-mona-vie is so pathetic.”
Glen sounds like a rather disturbed individual – how on earth does being opposed to a fraud and scam such as Monavie equate to being nazi, anti-semetic and anti Christian??!!
But as correctly pointed out by Vogel, seems like “FRAUD” is the religion being practised by Glen.
Another quality distributor for a quality company such as Monavie. Or more accurately – NOT.
August 1st, 2010 at 4:26 pm
I stated above “But as correctly pointed out by Vogel, seems like “FRAUD†is the religion being practised by Glen.”
My apologies – the credit goes to you Monavie Scam.

I’m just here to post that this Glenn dude has made it on my list of things to laugh about.
And yes, I was told the MonaVie replaces the 13 fruits and vegetables one is recommended to eat every day by the USDA or FDA. Because I did not understand, but I wanted to stay honest, I merely said fruits, because no vegetables are in MonaVie. Then I mentioned the USDA recommendation. But I was always always always careful to not suggest that MonaVie provides vegetables to anyone.
I doubt Glenn’s ever coming back, but dude: if you ever want anyone to respect you, do NOT insult someone simply because they disagree with you on something. Just don’t do it. Especially if you have nothing to argue. It makes you seem like an idiot. All you said in response to the logic in the post was “YOU LIE MONA VIE IS A GOOD COMPANY SO EVERYTHING YOU SAY AGAINST IT IS LIES.” No wonder everyone on this website thinks MonVie distributors are bumbling idiots: they’re quick to insult and add no substance to the argument.
Given the research Vogel, AA and MS have done on you, they’ve proven you to be one too. As Mark Twain once said, “Better to keep your mouth shut and have people think you’re an idiot rather than open it and confirm it.” Congratulations, sir. You’ve confirmed it on many of our lists.

Rasheed. Do yourself a favor. Look at the Lazy man’s Monavie web site and take a look at the information that Vogel dug up recently (Aug. 3rd I believe) on one of the illustrious “speakers” at the upcoming R3G convention in Florida. The line up that weekend is packed FULL of people like this. Just go to R3Global’s website and click on “register” to attend the “family reunion” for this. If all of the information provided to you on this site hasn’t convinced you to run screaming for the hills, I am fairly certain this will.

For those of you guys who had trouble (as I have) finding the list of speakers:

and the former link:
http://www.lazymanandmoney.com/monavie-scam-was-my-wife-recruited-sell-snake-oil/
I’m already over the fence. Thanks guys.
Don’t even get me started on the various FTC articles that I’ve seen.

Oh man! The Glenn Siesser story just keeps getting better. I just found this news story about him in the Sun-Sentinel.
“Glenn Siesser struggled with drug and alcohol addiction for more than 30 years, but encouragement from a group of men at Church of All Nations in Boca Raton helped turn him around. Now Siesser is a regular at weekly meetings of the church’s Iron Men Ministry. Formed five years ago at the Assembly of God affiliated church, the ministry has expanded its scope by reaching out to help others in surrounding communities. ‘It’s been a life-changing experience for me,’ said Siesser, 46, of Boca Raton.â€

Pffffttttt!!! Yeah, stunning turnaround there Glenn. You used to be a drug- and alcohol-addicted stock swindler and now you’re a rage-aholic snakekoil scammer issuing death threats, under the auspices of the Assembly of God, to blog operators. Can you say ‘relapse’? How about ‘violent fanatical fundamentalist hypocrite’?
