TV host Dr. Mehmet Oz — who is mentioned in the false advertisement — also took issue with it on Monday, tweeting he couldn’t agree more with Hanks.
“This is a fake and misleading advertisement intended to take advantage of consumers using false claims and our likenesses illegally,”Back in December, Oz posted a video criticizing similar fake endorsements for keto and diet pills as well as anti-aging creams. “These ads are made by con artists. They are scamming us, using our images illegally,” Oz said in the video. “And they’re scamming you, taking your hard earned money.”“Most importantly, they could be putting your health at risk,” he said.
Those online scams have cost victims more than $1.3 billion in the last 10 years, according to the Better Business Bureau. In November, actress Sandra Bullock fought back aggressively against multiple false ads for beauty products.Their lawsuit claimed the two are targeted by scammers"because of their age, their unimpeachable reputation for honesty and having worked hard at maintaining a healthy and youthful look, which con artists believe will attract and dupe unwitting customers."
