The \u201cingredient-infused fabric\u201d story sounds like recycled slimming-shapewear marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pauraju claims the shorts contain moringa, berberine, zeolite, green tea extract, curcumin, white kidney bean extract, and even \u201cIrisin,\u201d described as an exercise hormone. The page says these ingredients are embedded into the fabric and released through skin contact to activate metabolism, fat oxidation, blood sugar regulation, detoxification, and skin tightening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is extremely similar to past \u201cslimming shapewear\u201d claims regulators have already challenged.<\/p><div id=\"mwtad2489235001\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_360582-ad_309691-placement_360581\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"9971336976\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The FTC previously charged companies over caffeine-infused shapewear claims, saying the marketers falsely claimed garments could reduce cellulite, shrink body measurements, destroy fat cells, and slim the body.

The wording looks broken and template-like<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several parts of the product page appear rushed or poorly assembled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Examples include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>image alt text showing unrelated or broken wording such as \u201cbeevyne\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>headings like \u201cHow Does \u00ae &#8212; &#8211; &amp; &#8211; Work?\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>repeated brand-symbol formatting instead of a clean product name<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>overlong scientific-sounding sections with unclear grammar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>exaggerated medical-style copy written like a sales script<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This does not prove fraud by itself, but it strongly suggests the page was assembled quickly using copied or generated materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is common in dropshipping stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. The return policy makes refunds difficult<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pauraju\u2019s customer service page says refunds are only provided under limited circumstances such as damaged goods, wrong items, or orders that do not arrive within 45 business days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The delivery policy is more restrictive. It says customers must request a return within 14 days of receiving the order, the item must be unused, unwashed, in perfect condition, with original packaging, and the buyer is responsible for return shipping. Original shipping charges are not refunded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That means if you wear the shorts and discover they do not burn fat, do not fit well, or do not match expectations, getting a refund may be difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Shipping from China creates return friction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The site states that orders are shipped from <strong>China and the US<\/strong>. It also says buyers are responsible for return shipping costs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the return address is overseas, the cost of returning the product may be close to or higher than the value of the order. That makes the refund promise practically weak even if a return is technically allowed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many buyers, this turns the purchase into a one-way transaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Cancellations are not allowed after purchase<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The delivery policy says buyers are not allowed to cancel purchases after orders are placed. It also says changes must be made within 24 hours and before fulfillment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is another risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dropshipping stores often process orders quickly on paper, making cancellations difficult even if the item has not actually shipped yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. The \u201c7-day money back guarantee\u201d conflicts with the product page promise<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The product page says the purchase is protected by the Pauraju money-back guarantee.
