#shopee meet and greet

E-commerce platform Shopee is currently being investigated by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) due to the complaints about Shopee's BLACKPINK meet and greet event. Shopee initially launched a promo where fans can attend a meet and greet session with the famous Korean pop girl group, BLACKPINK. About 586 spenders would then win a ticket to attend the event, while the top 40 spenders would be able to meet the group and acquire autographs from them. In numerous tweets, customers detailed that Shopee had notified them of winning tickets to the event however, the tickets were then recalled by Shopee, stating that there was a "system error" and the supposed 116 winners received the wrong information. The meet and greet event still pushed through last June 6. According to Ronnel Abrenica, head of the DTI's Trade Enforcement Bureau, Shopee could be held accountable for changing the contest rules and could also be fined PHP 300,000 for each customer deceived by the promo.
