Ackey Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 'An advert for an amulet which promised 'divine protection' has been banned by advertising bosses because the firm behind it could not prove that angels will protect those who wear it. The magazine advert, placed by The Circle of Raphael (CoR), promised that the 'seven angels amulet' would bring its owner 'angelic blessings, guidance and peace' - and bring them luck at 'games of chance' at the casino. The talisman - the size of a 10p piece and which features an array of mystic symbols - is available in silver for £29 or nine carat gold for £120...One reader challenged the claims and said he wanted proof that the amulet worked...A spokesman for the ASA said: "The ASA noted CoR did not send evidence that showed the efficacy of the talisman" - The Daily Telegraph. Anyone think we should try this with those 'Jesus Saves' billboards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
