'Wrong message'A commission reached a proposed settlement that prohibits Sunday Riley and Ms Riley from posting fake reviews in The Future .

"Dishonest firms may come to conclude that posting fake reviews is a viable strategy, given the proposed outcome here. Honest firms, who are the biggest victims of this fraud, may be wondering if they are losing out by following The Law . Consumers may come to lack confidence that reviews are truthful. "
The FTC said it will accept comments from The Public for 30 Days before finalising the proposed settlement with Sunday Riley .
