Online shoppers are being misled through online sales.
The Commerce Commission has issued a formal warning to online retailer, Occasion Box, for making false and unsubstantiated claims on its website last year.
It comes after The Warehouse Group's 1-Day, has been fined $840,000 for misleading how long its daily deals would run for, and the quantity available.
Fair Trading General Manager Vanessa Horne told Kate Hawkesby this is a good reminder for other businesses.
She says they need to be able to back up any claims.
