Here's an excerpt from one announcement:
The FTC intends to conduct two exploratory studies on consumer susceptibility to fraudulent and deceptive marketing. This research will be conducted to further the FTC?s mission of protecting consumers from unfair and deceptive marketing. Before gathering this information, the FTC is seeking public comments on its proposed research. This notice seeks comments on the Fraud Susceptibility Experiment Study, one of the two studies. * * * Comments must be submitted on or before August 10, 2009.
The other announcement, also seeking comments by August 10, seeks comments on the Fraud Susceptibility Internet Panel Study. (HT to Chris Hoofnagle of Berkeley).
