Caveat emptor, indeed

Nowadays, it’s very difficult to trust anybody because the return for any trust is definitely negative. What I would like to say here is that those telebrands advertisement which keep circulating on the airwaves are not worth trusting at all.

Last week, my mother ordered a product named Nicer Dicer after viewing such an advertisement; it was delivered on time but when we started using the product, it was simply a useless thing which was not working properly at all like the description given on television.

When we called the helpline for this problem, they conveniently said, ”Wrong number.” These people have no rights to mislead ordinary people. It is true that while some consumers may be gullible but these advertisements are also guilty of deliberate misrepresentation.

Somebody should alert the relevant authorities, like the consumer court or consumer protection authority, so that they can take note of such practices.
