In marketing, the term ‘truth’ doesn’t seem to exist, which you will see in these common cases of deceptive packaging. For as long as there are trusting consumers who believe in them, facts don’t matter. More often it seems like some manufacturers are inclining towards tricky advertisements just to sell their products, and as a result of this, we are the ones who lose out. False advertising has deceived us all. We all know the frustration of realizing that we’re tricked out of money. Despite the frustration, we just laughed it off sometimes. Besides, what’s done is done and we only have the lesson to learn. Here are some examples of deceptive packaging that will make you sigh in disbelief.
