When the FTC comes calling, retailers have to be aware of more than just shipping rules Description: At the beginning of the 2002 holiday shopping season, the Federal Trade Commission sent letters to more than 50 Internet retailers who advertised rebates, product warranties or quick shipment offers. Each of these promotions, the letters warned, is subject to regulations that are actively enforced by the FTC. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in costly civil penalties, increased FTC scrutiny, and a loss of customer confidence. It is therefore essential that any retailer doing business on the Internet be familiar with these regulations and how the FTC enforces them.
