Don't get scammed by cell phone signal booster stickers

Do they work? Nah, save your money.

I bought one a year ago and was pissed it didn't work for me. (The good news is I bought the same ones for cheap at the $1 store.)

This guy did a little study that seems to support my feelings on the devices:

They're worthless. I bought a charger set on eBay, both home and car, for a phone about a year ago. The guy threw in one of the signal boosters. Didn't work at all...

lolz, i use to sell cellphones for a company, and it just made the customer feels happy when we would stick it on the phone. I absolutely concur, that it does not make a difference.
