PSA:

A PSA, Mainly For The New Guys:

Greetings fellow vapers!  I have been seeing a disturbing trend lately while browsing through /r/electronic_cigarette on Reddit.  It seems as though a company calling themselves Alien Vapor is ripping off a lot of people, and quite frequently too I might add.  How are they doing this?

Check out this link: http://www.alienvapor.com/bobas-bounty/

I'm sure many of you have heard of Boba's Bounty before.  Though I have never personally had the chance to try this juice before, I have heard it is quite amazing.  The problem is, the Boba's Bounty in the link I've listed is an absolute FAKE!

Here is the real deal:  http://www.avejuice.com/store/tobacco-flavors-bobas-bounty-c-8044_8045.html

Do you see the problem here?  A similarly names company is offering a product with the exact same name trying to swindle customers into buying their product instead.  I have read quite a few threads in the past few days of this exact scenario happening to unknowing vapers.  The problem is, by them time they realize the mistake they've made it's often too late.

What's worse is that now Alien Vapor has trademarked the name Boba's Bounty as seen here: http://trademarks.justia.com/858/98/boba-s-bounty-85898782.html (Thanks to Reddit user OHMEGA for pointing this out!)  This is just flat out ridiculous, disrespectful, distasteful, and underhanded.  Frankly I'm a little pissed and just wanted to get the word out there for anyone who doesn't know yet.

TL;DR- Alien Vapor and their website http://www.alienvapor.com is a big fat scam and I hope they go bankrupt for being the crooks they are!  BUYER BEWARE!
