Cevap
The actions that describe rebating and defamation are offering a portion of the commission as an incentive to buy, and circulating false statements about a competitor's financial solvency.
Offering a portion of a commission is an unauthorized inducement known as rebating. Circulating maliciously critical and false statements about a competitor's financial status is known as defamation. Both are strictly prohibited unfair trade practices under state regulations.
