3. Pinduoduo responds to the question of "order brushing": "zero tolerance" for order brushing behavior
In response to the media's doubts about "Pinduoduo's order brushing", Pinduoduo responded that it has "zero tolerance" for order brushing, and has launched measures such as voluntarily displaying the "total sales data" of the entire platform by merchants, and launched measures such as the crackdown on false shipments by themselves, eliminating the motivation and possibility of order brushing. Pinduoduo said, "Because the above behavior of merchants is essentially to push data products that are not inclined to the forefront, it will affect the transaction conversion rate and advertising conversion rate of the entire market, which is inconsistent with the fundamental interests and values of the platform, and falls under the scope of platform crackdowns."
