The Consumer Council of Guangxi issued a consumption reminder saying that, in fact, this is because businesses constantly promote various commodities such as health care products to elderly consumers through "brainwashing" propaganda, misleading the elderly into falling into the consumption trap step by step. According to the case of complaints from the elderly, Guangxi Consumer Council believes that the current consumption of the elderly has two major characteristics: the elderly have become the main consumer groups of health care products, health care products, physiotherapy instruments, massagers and other health care devices; The elderly have the ability and demand for healthy old-age care, but at the same time, they are also faced with limited identification ability and are easily deceived. With regard to the rights protection of elderly consumers, recently, according to the statistics of Nanning Administration for Industry and Commerce 123 15 Command Center, only 2% of the elderly complained to 123 15 after they realized that they had been cheated. Calls and visits reflect that the elderly at home are fooled by buying health food, and 95% of them are family members of the elderly. Guangxi Consumer Council issued a consumption reminder, and the elderly should beware of the trap behind "free". Nanning Industrial and Commercial Bureau 123 15 Command Center issued a warning to health food operators according to the responsibilities of the industrial and commercial departments: according to the Advertising Law, health food advertisements must not contain assertions or guarantees indicating efficacy and safety; It involves the functions of disease prevention and treatment; Claiming or implying that advertising goods are necessary to protect health, etc. Offenders, the industrial and commercial departments will impose administrative penalties according to relevant laws and regulations, and if the circumstances are serious enough to constitute a crime, they will be handed over to judicial organs. Consumer Tips Don't attend the so-called lectures. Look for regular health products 1. Be wary of the sales trap with "free" as the gimmick. Some operators sell goods on the spot, exaggerate the propaganda effect, falsely claim that they can cure diseases, drive up commodity prices and sell them at high prices, which has caused many elderly consumers to suffer economic losses. The elderly should beware of consumer fraud and false propaganda. 2. Correct understanding and rational purchase of health food, do not use health care products instead of drugs for disease treatment. Consumers should read clearly the specific signs of health food when purchasing, such as the approval number of "Wei Shi Jian Zi" or "Guo Shi Jian Zi" and the words marked "Health Food". 3. Adhere to quality consumption and consumption on demand. When consumers buy health care products, health care devices and other products, they should go to shopping malls, supermarkets, chain stores or online stores with complete licenses and good reputation. According to the physical condition of yourself or your family, buy the most suitable products according to the actual needs. 4. It is necessary to protect rights in a timely, legal and active manner. Consumers should take the initiative to obtain shopping vouchers such as shopping receipts and shopping invoices from merchants, regardless of whether they buy health food or health equipment through offline physical stores or online stores. When operators are found to be suspected of illegal business operations, they should report to the administrative department in a timely manner.
