- marcosdumay 2y agoAFAIK, the procedure for counting taxes is mandated by law. So the first one just can not be fraud. (And yeah, lobbyists in my country tried to import that law several time claiming it provides better transparency.)
- nottorp 2y agoIf the price displayed is not the price i'm paying it's fraud. Even if it's legal.
- marcosdumay 2y agoIf the law clearly tells you the relation between the displayed price and the billed price, and the business is doing exactly what the law requires, it can't be fraud. Anyway, you can ditch the first part. If the law requires it, and the business does exactly what the law requires, it's not fraud. You can't go around demanding that business violate the law, arguing that not doing so is a crime. You can push for it on moral basis, but never on legal basis.
- nottorp 2y agoCan you show me the law that requires the store to not display the final payment amount then? In any jurisdiction? Note requires not allows. Bonus: why can't I call it fraud if it's immoral but legal?
