Truth in Advertising? Online Dress Purchases That Were Far From Reality

15. Sweetheart Lace Gray Dress

Original Cost of Dress: Unknown Created Originally by: Unknown Purchased from: Internet Store Purchased for: Unknown (Knock-off) In 2018, reporter Jenny Jean took to Facebook to conduct research on the rising issue of online scams. She encouraged her followers to send emails to her CBC address detailing their experiences with online retail fraud. To provide context for her investigation, Jean shared a personal photo that may have inspired her efforts—a snapshot of herself after falling victim to an online scam.
  Sweetheart Lace Grey Dress The dress that Jean purchased was advertised as a regal, pale-blue lace gown, ideal for any elegant evening out. However, what she received was nothing short of a disappointment—a nightgown reminiscent of the 1800s prairie days. The design was so far removed from the glamorous vision she had that it seemed more fitting for a "Gone With The Wind" Halloween costume than a sophisticated evening dress.
