The Lying Salesman
The moral values of salesmen decline and business credibility is lost when almost laughable lies are being made; without guilt! High street shops have been using this strategy for as long as they existed. “While stocks last”, “Limited supplies”, hotel clerks who say “We have just a few rooms left” and travel agents who say “The flight is almost full so make a quick choice”. 95% of the time this must be bogus (simply urging you to make a transaction) and yet nobody rants loudly. Make a stance and become more sceptical.
On the right: “have you seen this man?”
