Is there fraud in TV shopping? How to tell the true from the false?

There is no complete fraud, but some unscrupulous businesses have this phenomenon. Jane chooses a TV station or a physical store with a high reputation for comparison and shopping.

In TV shopping, many fake and shoddy products can be sold blatantly on TV stations, and even many advertisements are often broadcast on provincial TV stations at the satellite TV level. Ordinary people are cheated, on the one hand, they are greedy and cheap, on the other hand, they trust TV stations. Television stations openly collude with swindlers to deceive consumers, and this blatant deception has been let go. In 2006, the state issued a decree prohibiting TV stations from broadcasting advertisements for five products, such as breast enhancement, weight loss, height increase, drugs and medical devices, but these advertisements still abound. Bad businesses wantonly publish false information, and TV stations should have done a good job of preventing false information long ago. However, there are so many TV stations, and milk is mom. As long as you give money, you won't refuse, which leads to an endless stream of false advertisements and becomes an "accomplice" of bad businesses.

The modes of TV shopping are: luring consumers into impulsive consumption in the form of low prices and gifts; False propaganda, the goods are not the right version; After-sales service promises are not honored. In advertisements, promises such as "unsatisfactory refundable", "invalid returnable" and "free trial invalid returnable" are often exchanged for consumers' trust. However, once consumers ask for a refund, they are pushed around by many parties and cheated again. In TV shopping fraud, the victims are mainly middle-aged and elderly people. Middle-aged and elderly people generally don't buy online. The main source of information they usually contact is TV, and the amount of information is very small. Therefore, when facing tempting and inflammatory TV shopping programs, they have no ability to distinguish. Children must take precautions at ordinary times, and consciously tell the elderly some cases seen in newspapers and TV, so that the elderly can understand these common scams. Pay attention to parents' living consumption needs and guide parents to spend reasonably.
