Cause of Tinnitus
Most likely hearing loss
Please don't buy into this crap. This stuff is all over the internet and makes me sick that they have been ripping off people for the past 11 years...

http://www.tinnitusoffer.com/

This is a scam.

Few great (NOT!) Amazon reviews: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004Q794E6/

Even their testimonial page uses a "stock photo" along with their fake testimonials.

BTW leave a comment on their Testimonials page... I did.
 
I honestly don 't know how they get away with advertising it, they can't produce any real studies or proof yet they have in bold letters 'silence the ringing' at the top of their page.

I do like the fake testimonials though, with a picture next to them saying 'stock photo - not actual user'

My review has been submitted to testimonials but I strongly suspect it will be removed soon.
 
Well, mine is still on there. 4 days so far, I wonder if they'll spot it eventually.
I don't see your testimonial there.

Is it possible it's cached in your browser and not actually on the site?

Try to open the site in a different browser and check if you can spot your testimonial.
 
Heh, I just tested this myself and confirmed my suspicion.

I wrote a testimonial on Firefox.

It was immediately published, "Thank you for your comment!".

Now when I visit the testimonial page on Firefox (even after restarting the browser), the testimonial is still there.

However, when I open the testimonial page on another browser, the testimonial is not there.

I suppose that's one tactic of falsely giving the impression that your testimonial is actually live on the site and visible to others, when in reality it is not.

Not surprising though, these people seem to be able to come up with the most innovative ways to scam sufferers.
 
40$ for a small bottle of water and herbs you don't even put in your ears :eek:

I think a fair number of people would have better results with simple nasal spray.

My rule of thumb is to never trust any product with "testimonials" page. There is never any way to verify whether they were even written by real people.

If something actually WORKS, it doesn't need testimonials, does it?
 
The contents of the supplements are all to supply ingredients for preventing persistent damage in inner ear but the contradiction is that they try to sell it to sufferers who already has damaged hearing. If you ask them if it is a cure they will tell you that their product prevents any further damage. But this is not mentioned clearly in the introduction page. They aim to sell it as a cure to sufferers by "word games" like the others such as tinnicare.

That's exactly it, and it would take about 5 minutes to program that shit.
 
This is the same crap as Tinnitus Miracle!
I feel like my tinnitus has gotten a little louder lately and I was looking around the net and came across the tinnitus miracle site. I was thinking of trying it depending on what you have to do. I typed in Tinnitus Miracle is a scam in Google and can't seem to find anything. So could you tell me why it is "crap?"

I got some of the Lipo-Flavonoid they advertise on TV but it made my BP rise and my doctor didn't like that.

P.S. I've developed some bulges behind my ears also. Been to the doctor, had a CT scan which showed normal. Went to an ENT who felt around and said it was my skull. Said I'd probably always had them but didn't notice. No I haven't always had them. Primary doc said may be arthritis but I didn't know you could get that in your skull. Also I drink a lot of that International Delight iced coffee. Wonder if the caffeine could be making it worse?

Because the Tinnitus Miracle marketers are clever.

They have created lots of phoney review sites, videos and such with keywords (for titles, headings, etc) tinnitus miracle scam

So when you google for tinnitus miracle scam, you'll get all sorts of "Is Tinnitus Miracle a Scam?" results (which Tinnitus Miracle advertisers have created) that try to convince you to buy the product by giving a great false impression of the product.

Also, Tinnitus Miracle has gone to such lengths as hiring cheap actors (you can get these from Fiverr for $5) to create encouraging testimonials.

Most of all, if there's a miracle and tinnitus in the product's name, it's alarming in and of itself.

It does not shock me at all to see scumbags such as "Tinnitus Miracle" trying to make a buck off the suffering of others. There have been such trash around since the beginning of time.

What amazes me is the great number of people who must buy into this scam. It takes a lot of money to advertise, package and promote such a snake oil product in this modern age.

There must be a large number of desperate people buying this garbage. It truly amazes me though that people will believe almost anything as long as it is on the web, or printed in a paper, or endorsed by some idiot they have never even heard of.

Ok, thanks!
 
I do wonder how there can be "active ingredients" in a homeopathic solution...

I also wonder how there could be a risk of overdose.

But hey, I am just a "finance guy", so what do I know...
 
Tinnitus Control cheated me of $71 when I returned their product. How? The package I returned cost me $123.85 but they refunded me only $51.85. Plus they took an additional $10 as "restocking fee" and I paid UPS $11 to send the package back unopened.

Why did you buy a scam product in the first place...?
 
Tinnitus Control looks very much like a scam. They take away your money, more than half the cost on this or that pretext, when you return their product package, fully intact, unopened and the delivery charge paid for by the buyer!
 
Hello, I have evidence to suggest this tinnitus treatment is a scam.

The biggest problem is that is homeopathic, and that has no scientific validation too it, you can learn more here.

Regardless on what stance you have on homeopathy and it being a pseudo-science (fake medicine) I have further reasons to believe this is actually a scam.
