Many businesses have deceived their clients with fake reviews so that they can purchase their products. This is called manipulation through ads and reviews.

This is called manipulation through ads and reviews. This practice is becoming too much to the extent that the trade commission had to step in.

FTC is put in place to put a stop to corrupt business practices by businesses and big firms. It has laws against manipulated and fake reviews, but it's tightening the law. Unlike before, the punishment for manipulating and faking reviews is much higher. This includes advertising agencies and platforms that help people manipulate fake reviews. Even if you aim to suppress bad reviews, this is still wrong.

FTF has warned platforms that allow such to occur on their turf. These platforms encourage these shady acts when they don't have proper disclosure tools.

New guides for endorsing products and services have emerged with new punishments for offenders. No matter how smart you are, you'll be caught.

The trade commission lamented that advertisers use new methods to reach their target audience. They use social media to mislead buyers to buy defective products. Some use stealth ads targeted toward children to manipulate them into liking a product. When the children like the product through manipulation, they'll ask their parents to buy it for them.

FTC was established to protect the interests of consumers, especially against misleading marketing.

On social media, some influencers receive money to make positive review posts about a product or service. However, they'll pretend to their followers and audience that they bought the products and give positive reviews. This will mislead their followers to purchase the products because they trust the words of the influencers. Many people have ended up falling into investment scams, being scammed of their money, and buying fake products. This has created a sort of distrust in influencers by social media influencers. People no longer trust products and services advertised by influencers on social media. In return, this has affected businesses that provide genuine reviews for their genuine products and services.
