Most Deceptive Ads of 2024
Here were some of the worst ads TINA.org investigated this year.
It’s Just Lunch! Dating Service
In September 2014, a class-action lawsuit was filed against It’s Just Lunch! for allegedly claiming to be “the world’s #1 personalized matchmaking service” when it actually delivers unsuitable matches, including matches with married people. According to the complaint, the service also claims it provides “personalized matchmaking & dating services” when, in reality, it chooses matches randomly. (Dunphy et al v. It’s Just Lunch, Inc., Case No. L00836514, Bergen County Court in New Jersey).
