Buyer Beware: Misleading Product Ads You Should Watch Out For

10. RACISM Sweatshirt

Cost: $25* Created by: Not sure Purchased via: The Internet On the left, you can see a t-shirt emblazoned with the phrase "Stop Pretending Your Racism is Patriotism." One customer was inspired to purchase this item due to its bold political message. However, upon receiving the shirt, they discovered that the company had made a printer error, resulting in a product that did not match their expectations.
  The sweatshirt in question featured the word "racism" prominently displayed in a striking red font, while all other letters, which were supposed to be in black, had failed to print. This glaring error rendered the garment unsuitable for wearing in public. Once the typo was discovered, it’s likely that the company faced a significant backlash and had to issue numerous apology letters to address the situation.
