Report:
I gathered my information by researching online and analyzing various ads that appeared potentially suspicious to me. I visited different websites, watched YouTube videos, and read reviews and forum discussions about these ads.
One robocall that I received was from a charitable organization asking for donations. It was identified as a robocall because the voice on the other end sounded automated and there was a delay before the responses to my questions.

Explanation:
1. VapeNation claims that their vape pens are completely safe and have no health risks. However, this claim is false as there is evidence suggesting that vaping can have negative health effects, including lung damage and addiction to nicotine.
2. CloudChasers states that their e-liquids are 100% organic and free from harmful chemicals. This claim is questionable because it is difficult to verify the accuracy of their statement without specific information about their manufacturing process and ingredients used.
3. VaporTech asserts that their vape mods provide the ultimate vaping experience. This claim can be considered true as it is subjective and based on personal preference. Different individuals may have different experiences with the product, so it is difficult to prove or disprove the claim.
