Dell’s Australia arm has been slapped with a $10 million AUD (about $6.49 million) fine for “making false and misleading representations on its website about discount prices for add-on computer monitors,” the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) announced today. The Australian regulator said the company sold 5,300 monitors this way.
They clearly meant the fine is such a small amount of money to the company that it won’t cause long term change in its practises.
What would be a reasonable fine to you?
