Marketplace
Too Good To Be True (40x5)
Air date: Oct 12, 2012
In four decades of Marketplace, we've come across a lot of products - and a lot of pitchmen - that proved to be too good to be true.
We're revisiting three of the most outrageous stories, and the people behind them: from an outrageous inventor pitching a $20,000 electronic cure-all; to guarantees of a job in a troubled economy; to a juice marketed as a miracle in a bottle.
Where are they now?
