Some Ads just don’t meet the required disclosures?


As a compliance attorney I take special note of advertisements I see in my day’s activities. I see some very thorough stuff and then some not so thorough advertisements. Sometimes there’s a total disregard of requirements. But will there be any push back on a bad ad? Will a regulator be informed of the non-compliance and deception of certain ads? (Not often).

This ad was shared with me by one of our readers. Fun times. Can you spot the various missing disclosures? (Hint – there are none, just call this number to get a loan?) My advice – don’t call these guys, why would you?
