iPhone 18 launch nears; BMCC urges caution over ads claiming extra plan discounts
With Apple set to release the iPhone 18 on Sept. 18, the Broadcasting Media and Communications Commission urged users to beware of false and deceptive advertisements claiming extra discounts on mobile phone plans. The commission said messages spreading through online communities and messengers that users can receive an additional 25 percent discount from today are not factual. It said only the existing optional contract discount is available and advised users not to contact numbers included in such messages.
