The End of Fake Testimonials?

Posted on 08. Oct, 2009 by Jakob in Random Noise, scam

Every time a new forex related products is released, one thing is sure; the sales page is hyped up, not only with crazy claims about how many pips and dollars the system can make you usually within an hour, but also with testimonials from people who claims the value of the product to be huge and that they have made an unrealistic amount of dollars in less than an hour. Such testimonials seem to be a very standard aspect of these landing pages. I am sure that 99% of all testimonials I have seen through time, has been fake and written by the creator of the page. The reason is, that before, it was legal to post them, as long as there was some statement on the page, telling the potential customers, that these results are not typical. Usually, you would find this, written with the smallest possible font size, at the very bottom of the page. In most cases you will probably not even reach the bottom before you leave the page or buy the product, as these pages tend to be some miles long. However, the Federal Trade Commission has come up with some new regulations, which might prevent, at least the use of stupid testimonials. I am sure we will see the internet marketers starting to use other lame-ass techniques in order to convince us about the great potential of their product. Maybe they will make the landing pages even longer (if possible); this seems to be one of their favorite methods. This might be the next place for FTC to step in; make regulations about the maximum length of one single page..
