都是戏精：网友吐槽最奇葩的商品广告(双语)

　　The whole purpose of marketing is to make a product desirable and to give the customer something that fulfills their needs， but I think it‘s fair to say that these companies don’t care about you。

　　营销的宗旨本应该是让一种商品具有吸引力，提供一些满足消费者需求的东西，不过中肯的说，下面这些公司好像根本不在乎消费者。

　　The marketing techniques on display here are not designed for building trust， repeat business and goodwill， they are shameless attempts to squeeze as much cash as possible out of unwitting consumers！ From dishonest packaging and manipulative screen tricks， to hidden disclaimers and barefaced lies， it‘s really quite shocking how low some companies will go for an extra few bucks。

　　下面展示的这些营销策略不是以构建信任感，招揽回头客，传播祝福为目的，而是恬不知耻的企图从愚蠢的消费者手中榨取尽可能多的钞票。从无诚信的包装、心机满满的程序操作、遮遮掩掩的免责声明到赤裸裸的谎言，这些公司为了多赚一点钱竟能将自己的下线拉低至此，真是令人咋舌。
