There is a new fake news story from the BioDermRX team. It pretends to be People Magazine, and claims that Joel and Victoria Osteen have resigned from their church and created BioDermRX. This is total bullshit, and I think I read a story on a Houston local news site where they denied it. The usual red flags (free trials, fake comments, etc. etc.) are there, as always; I have also been seeing their AdSense ads while using an USA-based VPN, making this a rare example of an international scam campaign. I couldn't link the fake news story via Archive.is because the scammers used a redirect to Google to defeat archiving services; as a consolation, here is a Pastebin link.
UPDATE: They've changed it to mention another product called "Perlelux" (which they misspelled as "Prerelux"). Still the same old.
UPDATE 2: They've changed it again, this time to advertise Creme.
UPDATE 3: Back to "Prerelux" (sic) again.
UPDATE 4: A few of their ads (and redirection sites) are still up, but the actual code that redirects you from the landing page to the fake news story has been removed.
