Sounds a little too good to be true. I'm no doctor, but increasing your IQ with a pill that might cost a fortune sounds unlikely. But what do I know eh?

It says Forbes at the top, but it's definitely not Forbes. From the domain looks like a scam site built to sell the product. It keeps taking me to a page trying to sell some supplement.

There's plenty of bullshit nootropics out there. Not really any good evidence for any of it.

Kind of worried your account got hacked.

I changed the topic name because I thought maybe your account was hacked. We don't want to advertise those scam products. ;)

Oh, ok.

Interestingly, my friend said she didn't send me that, and she doesn't even have the same Skype that she used to use (she 'sent' it on Skype, which I haven't used at all really in a very long time).
Not sure what's going on. o_O

Also, the article changed the name from ****, so it doesn't matter anymore. They also changed the dates etc.. :roll:
Is that even legal, to pretend to be Forbes? Isn't that a violation of copyright or something?

Your friend's Skype account was taken over by a spammer. I would block that account.

They have to change the names and info often, to hide from their own reputation and even criminal prosecution.

It is not legal to pretend to be Forbes. The server is probably based in Eastern Europe or Asia.
