Question 12
12. In a Facebook livestream, an author offered his books online for sale by asking interested viewers to type in “Mine” in the chatbox. A set of his books was sold to a social media influencer who later turned out to be a “joy reserver.” A “joy reserver” refers to an online buyer who enthusiastically shows interest in an item, but will not actually buy it. The author made a screenshot of the social media influencer’s “Mine” message as proof of the acceptance of the offer.
