The FTC is Cracking Down on Customer Reviews,
Including New Guides For Customer Review “Suppression”
Presented By:
Summary
On January 25, 2002, the FTC broke new ground by announcing a settlement with Fashion Nova LLC for $4.2 based a new approach to Section 5(a) of the FTC Act: “suppression” of negative product reviews.
Immediately after announcing the settlement, the FTC undertook 2 decisive actions by:
- sending warning letters to third-party review management platforms warning them against suppression of customer reviews, and
- publishing new guides for marketers regarding the collection, moderation, and publishing customer reviews.
These actions came after FTC warnings regarding endorsements and testimonials in October, 2021. The FTC’s message is clear: they’re cracking down on endorsements, testimonials and customer reviews.
