THE FRAUD OF SALE PROMOTIONS

We have come to yet another period of the year when company's are all out to reward their numerous customers for their patronage all through the business year.
This period are mostly come during the festive periods like we are approaching the Xmas. A lot oof sales promotions are out already with different forms and names thats i will not mention here in my write-uip for security purposes.
What i am letting you my dear esteemed reader to know this period is that you just have to be careful with these sales promotions.
Myself have been a victim of the traps set these buy business owner in thee name of rewarding us. Just recently, i spent the whole of the day, and spent almost 1000 megabyte  trying to place an order in one the web-site of these promotional companies.i call their customer representatives, all i got was some sort of stories that was to be meant for the gods". so frustrated i was that made me pick up my writing material to do this work to tell you to be wary of scam that are all out to defraud people in the name of reward.
Especially from the Continent where i come from Africa, they have know the high rate of poverty, and thus put up these scams in the name of succor to the teeming population of the poor.
   These people will tell you that these promotion are free or a reward, but before you realize it, you have spent half the money of the same product they claim they are giving out for free.
 How on earth can i be giving you a free gift that at the end of the day i make you go through hell that you wished i never gave you the gift in the first place.
Just today, a company claimed they were doing a promotion, and at end of the day, the website was not accessible not even by a single individual, they claimed they got more traffic on the site than they anticipated. how on earth do you think your numerous customers will not log in to participate in the promotion considering the high rate of poverty prevalent in the society now. You should have envisaged it and expanded your data-base to accommodate the larger populace.
  In fact my call is on these business owners to be atleaste humane eough to consider the plight they make people go through.
 The Government should also regulate the activities of these companies, and body that will regulate sale promotions should be set up to look into them. 
 And finally, the people/customer should be careful enough in what we engage our-self into to avoid been scammed.
See you at the Top.
