Vancouver real-estate firm admits faking investor for TV news

A Vancouver real-estate company is getting the kind of social media buzz they could surely do without, after apparently admitting to a manipulative Chinese New Year marketing scheme.
After an astute blogger noticed something fishy in several TV news stories involving Mac Marketing Solutions, the company was forced to make a statement on its Facebook page.
“Mac has admitted to perpetrating a fraud on both CBC and CTV news as well as their viewing public in conjunction to a condo development they are marketing,” Chris Bullard posted Thursday morning.
“They represented one of their employees as an out of town Asian buyer to fuel their marketing hype of the non-existent Asian real-estate invasion in Vancouver. The management of this company has no ethics and deserves to be drummed out of the business. I’m urging the authorities to charge them with fraud.”
