Ofc, they laughed and revealed the hoax they had pulled. Everyone had a great laugh and that was that. About a month later that ad popped up and as it showed random people using the product...and low and behold one of the pop up "satisfied customers" pictures were literally the SAME couple that had debunked the product 😄 😆 😀 🤣...that's down right sneaky!

Back in the 1980s, I did some modeling for a famous hair brand. What I found most confusing/disturbing was that the stylists used all sorts of products, not necessarily from the brand advertised. For example, they did a treatment on my hair that made it SUPER soft and shiny, but only for about a week. Worked great for the photos. But if anyone saw my pictures, would they assume the only products used were that brand? I think so. And refused any more work from the agency that booked me.

It always amazes me how few people have made use of the sold adage of “if it sounds too good to be true it probably is”. I’ve gotten a lot of mileage from that old saying over the years and likely been spared a lot of grief.

Wonder if it “improves balance”

There was an ad two years ago for a Christmas tree that comes quite flat and you push’s remote and the tree rises up to 6’ tall and the branches spread evenly around the tree. It came with lights and a little train that went around the tree. I was so impressed I bought one for my daughter for Christmas as their tree was done and told her she could open it before Christmas so they could display it. What I got was a small bag that just had af few branches in it… enough to make a very bare 5 inch tree. There was a small pkg. of LED lights ( 10 lights on it) and a few time decorations you can get in the dollar store. It’s a good thing we have a sense of humour and just burst out laughing at what I got but I paid $99.00 for something that immediately went in the garbage. I wrote them but of course never heard a word back. I have ordered bras for the mature woman it 1 get two free and only 1 bra came and I swear it was so tiny it didn’t even fit my ten year old granddaughter. It ended up being another lesson learned and more money down the drain.

I actually won a gold metal (in game in HomeScapes during 2019) for having the team/group with the most points or something like that in the ENTIRE game during an event. I also remember GardenScapes, the first game by the company that features Austin, the Butler and some cutscenes. The ads aren’t technically wrong in either, because there are scenes like that but with more graphics and less bright colors. So basically, you fix certain places up, such as the water fountain (probably GardenScapes) or the attic or something (probably HomeScapes) and you see Austin there doing his daily routine, and you can tap him to make him do stuff. That’s only for when you run out of whatever the thing was called (I think it was energy or stamina) that made it so whenever you tried a level and failed, you would lose some. Once you hit 0, you couldn’t do anything anymore until you got more energy/stamina. There were cutscenes, too, but it was a picture of them with a bar of text beneath it, and they would be “talking” and stuff. One of the games that are similar to this is Merge Mansion, where it also features a character renovating their grandparents house (like HomeScapes, just with the main character being female, the grandma actually showing up more than once every 80 something levels and only staying for a few levels, the grandparents don’t help and it doesn’t feature any event things).

@ Kesha Kesha you should never put a skin care product on without first doing a "skin test". A reputable skin care product will have this " warning " on their package. (Be sure to save package & receipt).Apply a small amount (dime size) on the inside of your elbow & rub it in thoroughly. Wait 48 hours to see if there is any reaction. IF you react sooner, wash off immediately and apply Benadryl (Diphenhydramine) cream if the rash & itching is severe. Otherwise, it will fade in a day or two. Return the product to the store for a refund, letting them know reason for return is Allergic Reaction. IF you have NO reaction, you can use it. BUT be aware - it is possible to become allergic to a product at any time.

I still see those Home app adverts here on KZread and other social media…so much for being BANNED

Honestly,wish should make a badge of "not deceiving" and slap it on next to the names of products that don't have a trace of deception,and push them more to the top *and filter out all the ones that don't have the badge (in the category named "no false advertising")* I think.

I can understand a little with the UV lighting to try to turn teeth white, mainly because of seeing it on restoration channels of them using blue lights, a specific liquid, and leaving, (an example of a ps1 cover that was yellow being one), going back to the light gray it once was. Looking up of restoring a ps1 on the site will show the one I mention.

I only ordered 1 product from wish, or actually my mom did as a present for my bday. They send the wrong product, or actually it was the right product. It was supposed to be this kind of necklace/pocketwatch thingy with the shadowhunters logo on it (shadowhunters is 1 of my favourite tv shows) and i did get the necklace pocketwatch thingy with the ACDC logo on it. My mom said sending it back would be more expensive then just reordering it. So we reodered it and this time i did get it with the shadowhunters logo. Luckily i have a friend that's into rockbands, so i gave the ACDC 1 to her. They both did look like the photo on the wish site.

Well they marketed stickers to people saying it would improve their daily aura and some such nonsense so the bracelet thing isn't the first time they tried to fool people.

That's how Wish got its name. Customer: "Will I get what I actually ordered?" Wish: "You wish..."

To be 100% honest when I first saw the green mask one I actually thought it worked and then I did a Google search on the mask found some videos watched them and realized within 5 minutes of the video that it was completely fake. :( i’m really glad that there are KZread videos of people trying these products so we don’t get scammed

Amazing comment!!! 🙌

Been buying from wish a while, and sure, if you buy clothing it's a 50/50 toss up but most stuff is just a cheap version of an expensive local item and works just fine. Take fishing lures for example, you get like 20 for $13, wait a month, but they look and perform the same as local $10/lure alternatives.

There’s also other ads that lie to us *those mobile game ads that always say “I cAnT rEaCh pInK cOloR“*

The KZread ads I'm seeing during this video also belong in this video. Lying in advertising is out of control these days!

I played homescapes before and they only add the latter mini-games when they were being called out. Back then it doesn't have that. You only have to update the house design and play like candy crush. That's it. They added the mini-games later on maybe because people kept bugging them for it lol.

I can't remember who it was, but they tried it out for themselves. And I'm not surprised it didn't work. And then a week after that, I saw this video.

I admit the Green Stick Facial Ad almost had me. For awhile I looked and asked at many retailers then I heard from others it was all a clever Ad scam debunked.

I was at a convention where people were selling irenew wrist bands. One guy talked about how Texas got upset by a weaker team bc the weaker team wore their wrist bands. It sounded like bulls**t then and it only got worse if you peeled back the onion.

A few years back, we ordered a bottle of cologne with a celebrity's name on it from Wish. What we got was a sample bottle with the picture seen in the ad glued to it. The sample bottle was like 1% the size of the bottle shown.

As someone who laughs and is skeptical of pretty much every ad, I appreciate the "behind the scenes" of homescape/mafia city, and green stick kind of ads - just to know how im getting scammed without the trial and error.

About the bracelets. I think the reason people are taken in by claims by the company is a adrenaline boost from motivation.

I had 1 of those brackets and it actually worked for a month then I slipped near my pond. As for the 2 games...let's just say I have to read ALL the fine print now cause I barely go in the app store anymore 🤦‍♂️ Edit: Don't get me started about the Instagram thing I bought from 3 different places. 2 of them never gave me anything and 1 place on Instagram gave me the wrong package 🤦‍♂️
