Mr. Wang used his account on March 16 this year to buy a packet of Taiwan-imported blue mountain flavor charcoal-roasted coffee for 54 yuan on a website. In the process of buying goods, he found that the words "extreme mellow, top flavor" were used in the advertising campaign on the store's web page, in which "top" and other extreme words were used.
