A lot of people these days get cheated of their money or property, but that's not even the worst-case scenario. Sometimes criminals who deceive people and their dangerous activity can be life-threatening. We’ll tell you about 8 situations when you need to be extra careful not to risk your health and even your life. Scammers often take old tires that actually have a specific lifespan. They exacerbate the situation by taking off the top layer of the material. This way, your “great bargain” significantly increases your risk of having an accident with a tragic outcome. You should only get medicines from licensed pharmacies. And if something reeks of suspicion, check that the pharmacy has supporting documentation. One big red flag is sites that provide prescription drugs without asking for a prescription from a doctor. Whether on purpose in order to save a buck or simply by neglect, seafood handlers might not practice the extreme precautions that they should when dealing with seafood. Another life-threatening form of seafood fraud is failing to mention the existence of traces of these ingredients in other products. But, of course, companies don’t want to keep people from buying their goods, so they might conveniently “forget” to warn people about this danger. You can find tons of stories online about people going to private clinics, getting a bunch of different health checks, and receiving shockingly horrible diagnoses. As a result, people pay for medical services they don’t actually need and might get real health problems. Always be cautious when buying food. Examine all the packaging attentively to make sure no labels have been replaced. Check that the condition of the food matches the date written on it. If that meat looks a little funky but it says it was packaged today, you might wanna skip on buying it.

Ciguatera poisoning, for example, can last for months. -Some doctors prescribe costly treatments and promise a miraculous full recovery.
