Chapter 128 - You're Again You're Again
The next day, Lisa came to Vira's studio in a hurry. This morning, Vira sent her an emergency message regarding her online shop!
"What's up Vir?" Lisa asked when she got to Vira's studio while trying to catch her breath.
Vira took her laptop and showed it to Lisa. She pointed to one of the comments and review sections. "Look, about 50 buyers gave us bad reviews and comments! This is really unbelievable, they are all asking for compensation!"
Lisa motioned the cursor to scroll down the page and read all the bad reviews and indecent comments on her online shop.
Her eyes slowly swept over the comments.
"What kind of clothes are these? They're all torn! Must be fake stuff!"
"Items didn't match with the preview pictures, DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!"
"Do you really intend to sell your stuff here? My clothes smell like formaldehyde. 1/5 star for your shop!"
"Just close your shop! Your clothes got a lot of holes and smelled bad! Do you really want to kill us buyers!?"
"The photos are good but the quality is not really good! There's no response for refund at all. What a horrible service! Definitely not recommended!"
Lisa was very worried about the bad comments and reviews of her online shop. She had had bad reviews and comments before this but they weren't as flocked as the last two days!
"Sis Lisa, what should we do? If this continues, we will go bankrupt and our business will be destroyed," Vira said anxiously.
"How can it be like this? It seems like all the reviews and comments were good a few days ago. Why would there be dozens of people giving bad reviews in the last two days?" Lisa asked, feeling curious.
"Vir, you've checked all the goods from the supplier, right?"
"Of course! I always checked them! You can trust me, all the items sent are all in good condition. Nothing was flawed nor smelled like formaldehyde like they said in the comments!"
Lisa had to convince herself that Vira's words were true. She went into the warehouse and checked all the new products that had arrived. "You're right, there's no problem with the products. But why does our online shop get attacked like this?"
Lisa was very worried about the bad reviews that flooded her online shop. The number of stars and good reviews had greatly affected her online shop's reputation. If the shop got a lot of criticism and scorn like this, it would likely receive warnings and be forced to close by Tokomedia.
New customers might not want to buy clothes from Lisa's online shop just by looking at the bad ratings and reviews.
Lisa then thought for a moment. Who would have thought that someone or some people still held a grudge against her and were willing to do evil like this. Was that Clara? No way, Clara never even got in touch with Lisa again.
Or was it Oscar? No way, that man was too busy thinking about how to make a lot of money from his own company.
Lisa read the bad comments and reviews again, then she found a customer with a familiar name.
"Karina!" Lisa shouted irritably.
"Who is she?" Vira curiously asked.
"Of course it's her! Karina used to be my rival at the office! This must be Karina's doing, she deliberately made a drama in our online shop and so we would go bankrupt!" Lisa explained fiercely.
The doorbell suddenly rang not long after Lisa guessed who did it to her online shop. Vira got up from her seat and peeked through the window. The girl saw a group of people with displeased faces standing in front of the fence of her house.
"Sister, how come people are raiding my studio?" Vira asked in fear.
Lisa approached Vira and peeked. "Oh my God, Karina is with them!"
"What should we do now, sis? Shouldn't we just come out and let them disperse by themselves?"
"Good idea, I also don't know what to say to them," Lisa said, agreeing to Vira's suggestion.
Someone from the crowd threw stones into Vira's house. "Hey! If you don't come out, we'll burn your house!" One of the angry mobs shouted.
"Okay, let's come out. I don't want them to burn your house and studio, it's not funny," Lisa asked a little hesitantly and worriedly.
Vira nodded. She opened the front door and the two of them stepped outside. Lisa swept away the angry crowd. She saw Karina standing in the front row holding a shirt from Lisa's online shop and saying, "Hey Lisa! You're a damn fraud! My clothes smell like formaldehyde, I vomited all the time because of wearing your clothes!"
"Me too! The clothes I got were all torn. What does this mean?! I demand compensation!" someone from the crowd shouted.
"You dirty scammer! You think you can lie to us all by using fake pictures for your shitty products, huh?! Look at this! My shirt is torn even though the photo looks good!" Another one of them said.
"My clothes also smell like formaldehyde! I used it all day at the office yesterday and during lunch time, I suddenly felt dizzy and had no appetite. In the afternoon, I had diarrhea and vomiting. It's certain because of the clothes you sell. I want to return it! I want my money back! You have to compensate for this!" another one shouted again.
"Yes! I also feel uncomfortable after wearing your clothes! Surely the materials in the clothes you sell don't match Indonesian standards! Please return my money!"
"Yes me too!"
"My clothes don't match with the photo!"
Lisa was very dizzy with these heartless people. She did not think she would have to meet Karina again after they had not met for a long time. As Lisa expected, Karina seemed to still want her revenge.
"Nonsense! All of you have no proof that clothes from our online shop cause pain! You think I poisoned all of our products on purpose? We are not stupid! You just want to ruin our business!" Vira said in a loud and thunderous voice.
"If you don't believe it, try to smell the clothes I bought two days ago!" Karina yelled at Vira and handed over the clothes that were said to contain the poison. Vira grabbed it and smelled the clothes.
"Smells weird!? No way, all our clothes are safe! Nothing like this!" Vira bluntly denied it.
"Don't lie! This is the proof I brought and you smelled it yourself! What does it smell like? Now we all want our money back. Hurry up or I'll take this matter to court!" Karina threatened.
In her heart, Lisa understood that this woman was deliberately making it up just to destroy her fashion business. Before tens or maybe even hundreds of bad reviews on her online store, all the products Lisa sells were definitely safe and met with the standards!
Lisa then took a step forward. With confidence and courage, she lifted her face and said to Karina, "If you don't believe the clothes I sell are safe and not damaged, I'll give the proof to you and all of you!"
Lisa pointed her index finger at the angry crowd.
"Vira!" Lisa snapped her fingers. "Bring one of the unopened boxes of clothes. We're going to prove to them that the goods we sell are good and worthy!"
A moment later, Vira came carrying a box which was still sealed. Lisa showed the crowd that she still hadn't touched the seal.
Karina looked at the cardboard box with a worried look.
Vira took a razor and broke the seal. She took one of the clothes from the box and showed it.
"Look, it's clean, right? Can't you all see there's no flaw in our product?!" Vira snapped.
"Try to smell it, Vir," Lisa said.
"It smells like ordinary clothes."
"Now let these people see for themselves!"
Vira showed the clothes that she had just opened from the sealed box. Some of the crowd touched and smelled it. It turned out that it didn't smell like what Karina had said!
"So how? Do you still want to be fooled and give us bad reviews?" Lisa snapped with confidence.
Some of the crowd suddenly admitted that Karina bribed them with packs of rices to help her bring down Lisa's business. Some of them even admitted that if they refused then Karina would threaten them.
"Seriously, are you not tired of messing with me, Karina?"
Karina's face suddenly flushed with embarrassment. Her plan to destroy Lisa's business failed!
"What now? DO you want me to bring this case to court and let you answer for your false accusation?" Lisa snapped again.
Karina was speechless, she was reluctant to admit that she was wrong. "You bitch!"
