Well, an influencer promoted a food delivery service. They showed pictures of delicious, hot and fresh meals. However, when customers ordered from the service, the food often arrived cold, late and was not as appetizing as shown. Another horror story in false advertising by an influencer was for a home - decor product. The influencer showed it looking very stylish and well - made in their posts. But when people bought it, it was flimsy and looked nothing like the pictures. This made the followers feel cheated and they lost trust in the influencer.

One case was an influencer who promoted a travel package. They made it look like an amazing luxury experience with five - star hotels and exclusive tours. But when their followers booked it, they found out that the hotels were sub - standard and the tours were overcrowded and not at all exclusive. This led to a lot of angry followers and a big blow to the influencer's reputation. Also, an influencer once promoted a tech gadget, saying it had all these amazing features. But when consumers got it, half of those features didn't work properly.

How Can You Call Me a Cheater?

How Can You Call Me a Cheater?

Foo, a bright young man that happens to be a computer genius, who excels in life by taking shortcuts when possible. If life was a game, he would definitely pick the easiest mode. Exams in school? Just read all the books once, and make sure you don’t forget the contents. Looking for a job? Make sure everyone around the boss knows just how perfect you are for the job. Having others bragging about your excellence is more trustworthy and gives plausible deniability. Quiz time? Let me just start my special search engine's voice recognition. Competing in soccer? Aw, how unfortunate, the opposing team 'somehow' got their clothes filled with itch-inducing powder, leading to a walkover. Playing a FPS game? Well, lets just have my own mouse driver software get some headshots while I watch a movie. It’s perfectly legit, as it just speeds up the response time so that it clicks before I even get to the computer. Gambling sites and online casinos? Data-mining, number-crunching and image recognition! By utilizing computer knowledge, solving problems is easy! Some might get jealous, but hey! Just be like me, and use your brains for once! However, in the modern era, the gangsters and other shady businesses are moving their turfs towards the internet and gaming circles. What happens when they realize that Foo was a threat to their profits? Well, no suspense here, they killed him. That’s the end of story... if you are to believe the god that greets him after his death. However, can this story get a fresh new start when Foo somehow ends up in a game-like medieval fantasy world? Or will the lack of modern tools, like his beloved computers or other modern conveniences, cut his story short yet again? ------------------------------ Also, thanks to SageDrunkKitty and Remteldanmarkius for proofreading the synopsis! Any errors still there are their fault! The fact that I might not have listened on them does not automatically make it my fault, okay?

Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction that draws heavily upon the original source material of Fate/Zero and the Fate series in general. I claim no rights to the ownership or credit of pre-existing characters or content. Author's Note: Thank you for your support, and I hope I can touch at least one persons heart with my writing. Just know that I may, *cough* will *cough*, make mistakes and I hope you all will be patient with me. The First Arc will be largely focused on Romance and Parenting, there will be action scenes here and there but the main focus will be on character development and their connections to one another. Arc two will be the start of the main action with romance as well. Arc three will be for the most part action with little time for romance but it will still play a large part in the story. There is give and take to everything so I hope those reading only for the action scenes will be patient and enjoy the story as a whole as well. This book will be a part of a larger universe in the future that I hope to make unique to me as an author. That being said it will take a while to get there so make sure you give me feedback so I know if there are things that need to be fixed or changed as I go along. I do not know everything related to the Nasuverse and if I skip over or get something wrong I do apologize. I do not own the cover picture, if the original author would like me to take it off please contact me.
