As I have been telling everybody powerbands are a scam, a sham, A big scale Dhokha. But it has been shown for what it is:

Any fool who believes a "HOLOGRAM" can actually do anything deserves everything they get.

Have you actually seen them? they are rubbish. I sledge every opposition player wearing them "watch out its super power hologram man! everyone back on the boundry" LOL and plenty of others I wont repeat here.

I'd failed to believe that a rubber band could do more than a trion:z bracelet. At least those things have magnets.

There was a post on cricketsupplies about those and they were tryin to promote those.

I posted this link from the newspaper in a reply - next day my post got deleted. Evil people know that its a scandel but still want to make money out of it.

If someone would be kind enough to put this link up there (Now that its proven to be true) - cant remember my login details and dont want to make another account. Will help spread the info about this scandel and save some money for some little kids who see their idols on tv wear those and spend their parents hard earned cash.

lols i never knew they existed, if i was the watchdog i would be like lols, if u gt scammed by that u deserve it.

the ability of some people to believe in anything as long as it makes no sense is astounding.

If they are promoting it to have a certain effect - that's illegal.

Company should be charged.

Can't believe someone would fall for it. :facepalm:

You guys will be surprised how many ppl are wearing these things. A few of them thought i was being silly not trusting in the ''unknown".

People see some famous person wearing something and all of a sudden their common sense goes out the window.

In a way this is real similar to ppl (like Asif) going to some magical "Baba" and getting those black magic threads to give them extra power!

Placebo effect. If it works for you it works for you. Everything is in the mind, our physical capabilities are beyond imagination.

thats all well and good but dont false advertise it to have amazing abilities and power/magic effects!! Proven to be baseless by studies etc coz of the claims made for all those years.


Then charging more for a piece of rubber than a Decent made English willow bat in Pakistan!
