A diamond is a girls best friend. Show your love with a diamond. A diamond is forever.

Why is this a scam? If you hold them in your hand long enough they will melt. It’s saying people eat them so fast because they are so good so not melt in your hand.

There are a million far worse marketing scams then this example

Love M & M's

Diamonds are rare and a necessity to show your love to a woman

Time shares are the biggest scam ever. I nearly got talked into one in Ft Lauderdale in 1985. So glad I backed out at the last second. I thought those two guys were going to kill me when I said “no”.
