Fake body scanners trick people across the country despite health alerts. A news team found operators at a school charging five dollars per scan. These sellers claimed their machines spot diseases through hand contact with the device. Many unhappy customers end up buying useless herbs after seeing scary results. One woman told reporters the problems listed had nothing to do with her actual health.
The scan teams push people to buy treatments costing twenty to hundred dollars right after showing results. When reporters asked about booking later, sellers said they would leave for Dubai tomorrow. Health officials warn that some operators offer free first scans to frighten people with false problems. Legal medicines need proper forms through the Zimbabwe medical authorities, with ingredient lists. Most sellers only have certificates from traditional medicine groups that do not allow selling these products.
Medical experts say the magnetic scanning claims lack scientific support. The sellers pressure clients who feel worried about their health diagnosis. Police continue warning citizens about these scams, but many operators keep moving between towns. People should seek proper medical care instead of trusting instant body scans with miracle cures.
