Hello Friends,
Deception is all around us; many deceptions we immediately recognize, but many escape our ability to identify.
1. "We are the best . . ." Clearly, all products and all businesses or services can not be the best—there must assuredly be a ranking.
2. Look closely at a container of coffee and the price: Once coffee tins were 16 ozs, now they can be 10, 10.5, 11, 11.5, or 12 ounces.
3. Is that price for each for 3, for 6, or the cost per ounce?
4. One size fits all?
5. Is that contract by the month there, quarter, or annually?
6. How soon will "0" APR end, and what % will it then become?
7. There is zero interest until you miss a payment; then, the interest charges go back to the start of the payments (retroactive).
8. Who are most, many, or some people? What are the numbers?
9. "Almost" anything is not what you might expect, i.e., almost new. What version is it? Is it an outdated model?
10. Is that price it? Or do you have to renew the contract in X number of days, months, or years?
11. Is that the same amount of product in that bag, or is there less for the same price?
