> This post seems to obviously be from someone selling a product. Constant references to a website selling a product that the poster claims is for "any mental illness" and cured him in three days seems to obviously be fraudulent. I wonder if this is not any more harmful than posting about how to obtain medications without a prescription? I find this type of posting to be completely at odds with the purpose of this forum.
Seems to be, maybe, but not necessarily. Fraud is a strong word, and if suspected may be reported to, and is probably best handled by, legal authorities. Questionable information is an issue at forums like this. I think the best response is to point out the questionable aspects. In a civil way, of course.
