Truth In Advertising: eBay Ad For Stolen iPods
Thursday, June 7, 2007
I thought it was pretty funny when this ad appears on Google for eBay when you do a search for “stolen ipods” the text of the ad states ” eBay: Looking for stolen iPods? Find exactly what you want today. “:
At least eBay is being honest…but I am not so sure I would be advertising this fact. I know the ad is appearing as part of an automated AdWords process, but this make one think about the number of stolen iPods that exchange hands via eBay and just how much profit eBay has made form the exchange of stolen iPods, gadgets and other goods.
