They must think we were born [***] yesterday... Currently on phone listening to another 'senior' colleague. Scamming [***]!!!! I've given them fake details but they've stupidly given me the name & address of the person they think I am!!!! Nice little phone call to the police... 😀

Fortunately , unearthing scams has been my forte and that too scams leading to us vulnerable.

My visit to India and back has been insightful with many documentary evidence to nail such scams, i have been assured of more evidence once i reach India post Christmas, one such scami is mentioned below,

This is regarding the Company named “Sanda Wellness” which is into health supplements related to various health concerns. Sanda Wellness changed its name to “Natural Wellness Products Ltd” which filed for insolvency and I understand that, ironically has been sold to the company “Your Lifestyle Products Ltd” and is presently operating in the field of marketing health supplements by means of telemarketing in the UK . The fact that the Directors or atleast one Director in the company Your Lifestyle Products Ltd is common to the company Natural Wellness Products Ltd and thus it cannot be ruled out that the so called dissolution and sale of the company Natural Wellness Products Ltd is a mere eyewash and a ploy of its founder Mr. Ajit Patel to evade prosecution.

These people have no qualms about ruthlessly scamming elderly and vulnerable people - often those with dementia - out of hundreds or thousands of pounds. Therefore i think it is only fair they should be exposed for the parasitic scum they are. Sandwellbeing are deliberately targeting the elderly and vulnerable. They announce themselves as calling from the "Health Centre". They chat away about general health issues, show friendly concern, until they find one to focus on and then pursue a large sale. They transfer calls between individuals which helps to build credibility and confuse the target. DO NOT use them. They are a truly insidious and invidious group.

The NHS in Nottingham issued warnings about Sanda in 2010:
http://www.lpc-online.org.uk/nottinghamshire_lpc/?news_id=2592
Bogus call to Nottingham City patient instructing them to stop taking their prescription medication, Message received from GP practice in Clifton :-
A company from India under the name Sanda Wellbeing who apparently ‘phone the patient up and advise the patient to stop taking their medication.If patient's raise similar concerns practices / pharmacies should ask patients to report this to the local police.
The PCT should be informed if further incidents do occur.

Kent Trading Standards have received reports of bogus callers telephoning consumers pretending to be from a local GP surgery. The caller gives the impression they are from the NHS and asks what medication the consumer is taking. In one incident the caller persuaded the consumer they would benefit from taking Pomegranate tablets, they took credit card details and debited £179.50 from the account. A victim's son traced the call back to a company based in India. No NHS health professional would ever ask for a patient's credit card details over the phone.
Kent Trading Standards are warning consumers to be very wary of anyone cold calling and requesting credit or debit card details. If you are in any doubt at all end the call. In your home, on your phone, you are in control - hang up.

it appears that, owing to the inquiry launched by the Kent Trading Standards, Sanda changed its address last year and filed for liquidation. They have been successful in this ploy and are now operating as Your Lifestyle Products Ltd .

Sanda even had their own facebook page which has been abandoned after people had posted such gems as "The head of Sanda, Ajit Patel was on trial for years, when he was the Chairman of Goldshield, for trying to defraud the NHS by millions."

The director of Sanda Wellbeing Ltd (later known as Natural Wellness Products Ltd), Ajit Patel, also has a magazine called "Your Wellness" (print and digital: http://issuu.com/yourwellness ), published by Yourwellness Publishing Ltd and if you have a subscription for it they may have used the details you gave them to call you.

The Man Friday of Mr. Ajit Patel is an Indian National,  Vijay Bhagwandas Dalwani, who apart from being a Director in Sanda Wellness is currently a Director in the following Companies :

Health Media Publishing Private Limited
Oxeye Digital Solutions Private Limited
Omatra Foundation
N Gage Marketing India Private Limited
Sanda Office Management Services Private Limited

Sanda Business Solutions Private Limited
Dudh Sagar Spa Goa
Baywatch Goa

Vijay Bhagwandas Dalwani is also the Chairman of the Indian company DNY Hospitality Pvt. Ltd and his family members are Directors. These people have no qualms about ruthlessly scamming elderly and vulnerable people - often those with dementia.

As per his Web site he claims to be some DJ with albums connected to his name, wonder where the funds were wired from.

Meeting employees working with such scam companies has also revealed the amount of funds the Directors have diverted to their family and their accounts for personal gain is incredible.

Further inquiries into the affairs of Sanda has revealed that the company has also evaded millions in taxes, both in the UK and in India and as a matter of fact there is a Police Complaint filed against the Indian subsidiary Sanda Wellbeing Pvt Ltd for Tax evasion which is presently being investigated by the M.I.D.C. Police Station, Mumbai, India under complaint number: MECR 17/2014.

Astounding as it may sound, Mr. Ajit Patel and his cronies have now ventured in the field of developing Digital Applications for Smart Phones and have developed an App named               “n-gage messenger”, which brags to be a world's first 360 degree lifestyle Chat app. The Developer address also being ; Suite 010, The Beehive, Beehive Ring Road, Nr Gatwick Airport RH6 0PA .  Please note that Vijay Bhagwandas Dalwani is a Director in N Gage Marketing India Private Limited.

With a proven history of blatant violations of the TPS and Data Protection guidelines and also Tax laws in the UK and India, how safe your personal data will be is anybody’s guess.

Beware , check credential, it would be an disaster , scam companies to have easy access to your phone and data.BEWARE.

Do not believe any of the positive comments here. They are posted by people working for Sanda trying to reduce the incidence of negative feedback appearing on Google. I encourage all of you who have experienced this scam to write here and expose these unscrupulous fraudsters.

It's interesting to see the list of names which the fraudsters are operating from. I've had countless calls from Lifestyle etc.
Unfortunately we are all interrupted by these time wasting cold callers but its satisfying to know there's a growing awareness of them.
Also fraudsters are claiming to be your ENERGY SUPPLIERS to access your bank details.
.

I have power of attorney for an 87 year old, whom I've just found out has paid out nearly £2k for this companies products since April 2015, nearly all of which are unopened.  I've returned them and I'm expecting a refund, but I also have their invoices which I intend to copy and send with a breakdown of my conversations with this company, to Watchdog, Rogue Traders and the Police.  They informed me that they take the medical history of their client, when I asked if they were doctors, I was told no, they were nutritionists!!!!  Perhaps their CEO needs contacting?

As long as personal details are given over the phone to these cold callers these scams will persist

I was given this number by the 80 year old father who has been conned out of £500 by these fraudsters. The company concerned is now calling themselves Nutrigene - although they probably trade by several names. My father did receive rose hip and pomegranate tablets which he didn't want, and he is embarrassed that he was bullied and conned into buying anything. When the finally upped the ante and rang him to say his order for another £499 worth were ready for despatch he  finally spoke up about what was happened - he had a drawerful of these tablets from 3 "orders" - and his credit card was cancelled at the bank. The tablets are variously labelled Natura Healthcare and Nutrigene, and there are 8 boxes each of Rose Hip and Pomegranate (30 tabs a pack) plus green coffee beans and "glucofit". These people are scum, targetiing pensioners and defrauding them of their hard earned pensions in exchange for worthless and unnecessary supplements. They operate from Goa so they cannot be prosecuted in this country. It's outrageous.

Totally agree, its appalling that criminals are getting away with stealing thousands from vulnerable & elderly citizens.
It's a help to try & deter further victims of crime by warning the general public of these cold callers!
It's not gooda advertising for NATURA HEALTHCARE, SARA WELLBEING,NUTRIGENE to name but a few of these fraudsters.

At Natura Healthcare we need to establish our patients current state of health so we can give the best possible health care products. We are recommending to anyone wanting to receive our help that they should collect their stool (faeces) sample in a clean container in a sealed plastic bag and post it to us straight away. Once we have received your stool sample we can advise the best tablets for you. Thank you for your cooperation and we look forward to receiving your samples.

Is there no longer a regulation preventing the sending of noxious matter through Royal Mail?

With all the carp you get in the mail it's difficult to tell.

Well these comments say it all!
Probably entered by the scammers who couldn't care less & have no concept of right & wrong.
Lets hope that one day it will catch up with you & perhaps you'll be laughing on the other side of your face. Usually what goes around comes around.
At least there is a growing awareness of your VITAMIN SCAMS. We can warn our elderly relatives & friends so lets hope that 2016 is a less fruitful one for you.

My mother was swindled out of £900 in 2014 I reported it to action fraud and trading std. This company is still trading WHY. She paid for 56 of vitamins and received non.  My mother had onset of demencia

Absolutely appalling!
How can you reply to the previous post with such a couldn't care less attitude. It just sums you up as the  criminals we know you are.
Trading Standards & the Media must do all they possibly can to warn the elderly of your scams. Word is fortunately spreading, thank goodness.😊

The comment above was not made by our company. We do not require faeces to be posted to us and our administration staff are getting disturbed by the amount of samples that are being posted to us. It is not necessary to post these materials to us. Please call on our telephone number to resolve any complaints you have. Thank you.

You are only getting back the [***] you give out to the elderly and vulnerable when you scam them.

I'm in complete agreement with Enoch and have absolutely no sympathy if people are posting their cr*p to you - it is what you deserve after all the elderly and vulnerable people you have defrauded! Your company is a scam!

We operate a professional service that has benefited hundreds of our customers. Your faecal deposits are of no interest to our staff, who find it unsanitary and unsafe to open and handle these substances. Kindly stop posting these items to us as it creates an unsavory and unpleasant working environment.

No [***], Sherlock.

What are you talking about?
