Deceptive Ads on Bernardsville-Bedminster Patch

Deceptive smartphone lens ads

Emails from the Bernardsville-Bedminster Patch have been including an ad for smartphone lenses that purportedly enhance the photos your phone takes. The photos of the product in the ads are deceptive in that they do not illustrate the product being sold. Compare the photo, above, to the one in their ad. Do not be taken in by the hype included in the products website. Instead look for reviews of the product on the web. You will find most are negative. The Bernardsville-Bedminster Patch is doing a disservice to their customers in promoting this type of deceptive ads and should vet their ads more rigorously.
