ICYMI: Selfish Landlord On FB Criticized For Renting A Living Room With Only A Single Bed & Nothing Much Else

In order to make sales, many businesses will exaggerate when advertising, but if the exaggeration is too illogical, no one will believe it.

Earlier, a real estate agent in Malaysia used an "alternative" sales method to advertise, but netizens complained that it was too misleading!

The real estate agent posted a house sale advertisement on Facebook , stating that a homeowner wanted to sell a house "close to the Petronas Twin Towers (KLCC)" and that the price was reduced to only RM160,000. However, it was revealed that the house was 59km away from KLCC.

The post was later forwarded to social media. In addition, the netizen also posted a map photo. He assumed that there is a distance of 49km between Nilai, Negeri Sembilan and KLCC. So how "close" can the house in the advertisement 59km away from KLCC be?

After reading the advertisement post, many netizens left messages mocking the real estate agent's "bad publicity tactics." Some people suggested that people who are interested in buying a house should not easily believe the advertisement and must go to the house to inspect the house in person.
