Ladies and gentlemen of ECF, I have a dire warning that must be shared with all vapers. There is a scam out there that is not only a way to steal money from people, but is also a threat to this very industry itself. The scam I speak of is Green Nicotine. Their website can be viewed here:
www. greennicotine .com Electronic Cigarette | Electric Cigarette | Smokeless Cigarette | E-Cig | Smoking Alternative - GreenNicotine Electronic Cigarettes.
At first, this may just seem like another overpriced mall kiosk. it is far from it. the way this man markets his products may give the FDA ideas, and may misshape the public's view of how the Electronic Cigarette industry should be run. he spreads misleading lies about electronic cigarettes who compete with him, such as atomizers containing pure nickle, and that particles thereof get in the vapor. If you look at his blog here you will find many other very alarming examples

This has come to the attention to some of you a few months ago when I believed his lies and posted them on here to ask you if you believed they were true. Some of you commented on his deceptive videos, only to have your comments removed and your username blocked from commenting any further on his videos. I believe further action must be taken to stop them from harming and slandering our fine industry by spreading awareness and making sure he knows that what he's doing has been compromised! First, I recommend flagging his videos as spam and reporting these people to youtube. one of the most alarming and misleading videos can be found here:

I suggest as many people flag him as possible. the next step you can take is doing what I just did 5 minutes before I wrote this and giving the owner of this scam a piece of your mind by emailing him at sssean@gmail.com
- do not be extremely vulgar or send anything nonconstructive, tell him you know the truth about what he does and that he will not get away with it. make him feel like the jig is up. here's what I sent him, I suggest similar things as this:
So I used to believe your nonsense. I used to think that having fruit flavors markets to minors. I used to believe the flat out LIE you and your uneducated mall kiosk workers told me about nickle being in atomizers, and furthermore about your cartomizers (yeah, that's what it's called when an atomizer and cartridge are built 2-in-1). There is no way a 1 ML cartomizer can contain 50 cigarettes worth. I know what you really do. You take an electronic cigarette called Greencig, straight out of china, repackage and rebrand them, and sell them to clueless mall shoppers for 5 times what they're really worth. your batteries are really worth about 10 dollars. your cartridges should only be sold for about $30 for a pack of 10 at MOST, probably $20 since they cannot be refilled. a PCC (which means Personal Charging Case) should only be sold for about $20. But this isn't just about the money, let me educate YOU about your own industry, and about the lies you either ignorantly or maliciously spout.
First of all, let's talk about the fruit flavors. These are not made to "appeal to nonsmokers". When the E-cig industry reached the US, smokers despised the tobacco flavors, because it's hard to emulate the tobacco taste, so what they did was asked for fruit flavors, which were made. Fastforward the clock about 6 months, after vaping (yeah, that means using an E-cig) a cherry flavor to get their nicotine, the smokers discovered that they didn't even LIKE the taste of cigarettes anymore! That is the purpose of fruit flavors: to disassociate your taste buds with tobacco as much as possible so that you won't even like it. You use this same tactic, except you PASS YOUR FLAVORS OFF as tobacco flavors, when they certainly are not. Western is supposed to taste like a Marlboro? that's funny, because I could SWEAR it tastes just like a coffee flavor, which I'll bet it IS, now knowing how you operate. Oriental is supposed to taste like Camel? that's odd, to me it tastes just like cinnamon roll, which once again I bet it actually is.
Alright, Now let's get to the "nickle meshing" BS you pulled out of your .... Most atomizers aren't made of pure nickle, they're made of a nickle-chrome alloy which is resistant to heat. this same metal is used in fryers at fast food resturaunts. and I dissected your cartridge only to discover those "inorganic fibers" you speak of are only a heat inhibitor wrapped around a heat conducting wire, which is made of.... wait for it.... NICKLE-CHROME! wanna know how I know about this? www.e-cigarette-forum.com These are the people who are going to expose the lies of people like you and spread the truth about this industry. you even have the cowardice to use your family to sell your product. it makes my stomach turn when I see all the videos of the innocent people you've ....ed out of their money. You are slandering this whole industry in an effort to make a quick dollar. I got screwed by you myself, and $500 later, I finally found a company that sells the same thing you sell for a fraction of the price. meet your worst nightmare. www.vapor4life.com same type of battery and better cartridges for it for about $10-$20 per item.
