How it works

Every fake sale leaves a trail. We follow it.

01

Track Prices

We monitor product pricing across major retailers, logging every price change against the 90-day legal standard.

02

Flag Violations

When a retailer advertises an "original price" that was never the real price, we flag it with the specific law they're breaking.

03

Report & Act

Consumers can search violations, submit reports with evidence, and connect with attorneys who specialize in pricing fraud.

This isn't theoretical. It's happening now.

Major brands have paid millions in settlements for deceptive strike-through pricing. These aren't edge cases. They're business strategies that rely on consumers not checking.

Overstock False comparison pricing on thousands of products $6.8M
J.C. Penney "Regular" prices that were never the prevailing price Class Action
Kohl's Products listed at higher prices they were never sold at Class Action
Michael Kors Outlet "original prices" that never existed in retail Class Action

Every price tag tells a story.
Some of them are lying.

FakeTag is building the world's first consumer-powered database of deceptive pricing violations. Because if a sale isn't real, someone should say so.
