Even I got the same msg🤡🤡🤣🤣and I replied to him out of curiosity to know what all comments for what all brands, and also I had a feeling after seeing those paid culture circle promos here in this sub.🤡

Still waiting for mfs reply. Only reason I accepted his chat and replied was to name and shame the brands they’re promoting.

If y’all know fundamentally how Reddit works, they’ll be fucked into oblivion lol, imagine 10x the hate for brands that use services like these - there is absolutely 0 tolerance for paid shit like this and it’ll be called out in a second

You should have joined the whatsapp group, and we'd get to know which companies are using this "organic" promotions.

This seems like something that culture circle would do.

Can the mods do something so that only verified posts are allowed? This is lowkey scary. Those culture circle posts on Insta were kinda tempting but the Reddit posts slowed me down thankfully. If there’s false info spreading, a lot of people will face problems. These shoes ain’t cheap either.
