Pinbaodr Dentures, Pinboard Dentures, Instant Dentures, SmileMakeover Dentures - Various names for the same Scam Product

Pinbaodr dentures are being heavily marketed on social media, claiming to be affordable alternative to dentist dentures which can cost many $1000s. They are instead:

Red Flags:

  1. The price.
  2. Offering discounts to multiple purchases. If they are that good, why would one need a two, 4 or 6 sets.
  3. It uses the USA flag in its marketing, when the company is Chinese
  4. AI images and videos are used on the website.
  5. Pictures on the website have been stolen from real orthopedic practice websites. Why steal photos from other businesses if the dentures work as well as claimed. Surely they would have their own photos they could use.
  6. All reviews on the Pinbaodr website are very glowing of the product.
  7. It has countdowns when discounts on the website are no longer offered. A tactic often used by scammers to force impulse buying.
  8. Scamadviser gives pinbaodr website a score of 1 out of 100. The lowest possible score indicating it is scam website selling scam products.
  9. There are no product reviews outside their website. Amazing (not) that customers only give Pinbaodr feedback, not traditional review websites. This is a common for newly created scam websites.

Do not buy pinbaodr dentures (or similar ones when the scam website is rebirthed) as you will be scammed out of your hard earned cash.

Edit: they are also sold as Pinboard Dentures, Instant Dentures, SmileMakeover. There are also positive video reviews on YouTube created by the scammers, to assist in their scams.

This sounds like a click bait ad I saw recently while reading an online newspaper, that suggested buying their spectacles for a similar price to these teeth, instead of wearing “expensive” optometrist supplied glasses, allegedly from Germany I think (I certain sky didn’t click on it).

This has some features in common with another scam all over Facebook, advertising “Bone conduction hearing Aids” and illustrated with advertising stolen from the Mayo Clinic, talking about ‘made in the USA’ . There are lots of different advertisers, all of them linking off this to businesses in China. If you order, after a MONTH you will receive ‘Sports Headphones!’ Those I received won’t even CHARGE so I cannot comment on their performance; I am pursuing a refund from my credit card provider.

What’s even more disgusting than these scam companies with apparently bottomless budgets for marketing, is that YouTube, Facebook, et,al, gladly take their money and run their ads, knowing full well that they’re scams. Billionaires don’t care where the money comes from.

@Splinter, that is very true. They are only interested in advertising revenue, and not interested in protecting the interests of their users.

And adding to this, when scams on their platforms are reported to them, they do nothing. I used to report scams to the platforms but have given up. When I did report, I would get a standard response that the advertising met their guidelines.

This is terrible, as removing scam advertising reduces the chance of otters being scammed.

I personally support a legislative change where these platforms become liable when they are notified of scams being advertised on their platforms (either through direct advertising, posts or sites/pages), chose to do nothing and this results in more victims. Platforms have a duty of care to their users, which they currently ignore. A legislative change should potentially occur as it would quickly stop one pathway scammers use to trap their victims.

I wish I had seen this before buying these “dentures” for my elderly mother. What we got was 6 sets of plastic, toy, children’s “teeth” that we used to wear as kids for halloween. Requesting a refund has not been easy so far, but thankfully I ordered with PayPal, so I’m getting a full refund. If you’re on the fence, please trust me and do not buy this ridiculously misleading product.
