I've never engaged in any of those kinds of practices, but did find them both clever and fascinating when I read about them ~3 years ago. I never thought of them as being illegal until today.

I guess I'm just concerned with the trend. Things we think of as clever today may land people in prison. Its interesting and scary that we might not see it coming.

There is nothing clever about misrepresenting yourself to people in business dealings. It doesn't necessarily have to be illegal, but it's always shady.

Don't misrepresent yourself - That's actually an incredibly good and concise guideline for avoiding trouble.

Also it'll save you a lot of money on marketing costs.
