This Pakistani blogger is looking out social media influencers
Local blogger Naiha J. Eiman, going by Instagram to handle Rebellious Brownie, has been referred to as our fellow social media influencers for lying to their followers about product reviews.
Before it happened, IG stayed to document the incident. Naiha first asked her fans whether or not she should talk about a count number. It has been frightening her for a few days now. The solution turned into a powerful ‘yes.’
She uploaded the video. “I do not mean to offend by belittling anybody. A couple of weeks back, an enterprise contacted me to check a product. After using the product, I told the organization that I would not evaluate it because I no longer loved it and that if they wanted an honest review, I could try it. The organization said no, and they’d take back the product. I shouldn’t assess it for them. I said, okay, I don’t want cash, and I won’t review it until they want a sincere overview. I lower back the product.
“After a few days, I saw some bloggers reviewing it, and I advised them that it’s now not worth it and they must no longer advocate it in any other case, they’ll lose their credibility. Nobody listened to me. Then, I saw one blogger publish a [positive] review [on the product]. I felt hurt and offended by those actions, and I commented below the put-up, saying, ‘I did not like the product. I even have used it, and I will no longer suggest it to everybody.’ my comment was deleted.
I actually confronted the blogger, and she admitted that she had been doing the incorrect thing, but she nonetheless determined to take the logo’s aspect. The product became reviewed without being used.”
Nathan refused to name and shame the blogger in question but stated that this video is a message for all different bloggers to be extra responsible and honest with their followers.
“I care about the fans. Why do you name yourself an influencer if you’re going to lie about using certain products and propose them to all and sundry,” especially one with a substantial fee tag and maybe steeply-priced for fans, she requested. Fellow bloggers?
“In my eyes, that blogger has misplaced all credibility,” said Nabiha. “If you want it after reviewing it, [it] makes feel [to recommend it to your followers]. It disillusioned me, considering that such many human beings comply with you, and they’re willing to shop for products based on your advice, and you’re lying to them for a small amount of money. Stop calling yourself an influencer if you’re now not going to be honest with your followers. Please take this role severely; otherwise, leave this enterprise.”
Speaking to IG customers, she was confused: “Be cautious about who you follow and what you buy based totally on someone else’s advice because now I don’t know how many bloggers are accessible who post about merchandise without reviewing it. I want to be honest with my followers.”
Other nearby bloggers, such as Bia Alina (that Karachi girl), Fatima Haryana (that girl with the blue bag), and others, praised Naiha for being genuine with herself and her followers.
