Deception in Advertising

When advertisers ignore the well-being of consumers with false promises, they are not only behaving unethically, they are acting illegally. Misrepresentation comes in many forms. (EndlessROI, 2008)

While there is no specific law preventing submitting papers purchased or copied from the Internet to be submitted as your own work, is it really worth taking the chance?

Have you reviewed your University's policies regarding plagiarism and do you understand the consequences of getting caught passing off another person's work as your own?

Even if you don't get caught, have you really learned the material using this method?

When you turn in a paper with your name on it that you did not write, you are misrepresenting another person's work as your own. This is wrong. You know deep down it's wrong, no matter what justifications you may be using to excuse your choice to plagiarize. (EndlessROI, 2008)

What do you think and how do you feel about advertisers who are caught lying to consumers?
