Think twice before buying something from Temu

(WGN Radio) – Does a smart watch for $9, an electric toothbrush for $3, and a crystal necklace for $1.50 seem too good to be true? Those prices, offered in a flash sale on e-commerce site Temu, just might be.

You may recognize Temu from ubiquitous ads on Facebook and Instagram. The company has a U.S. headquarters, but is a “sister company” of the massive Chinese company Pinduoduo, reports Time. You can shop on Temu’s site or download the app, where you can also earn credits by playing games or inviting people to join.

About 50 million consumers have downloaded the app, said President and CEO of the Better Business Bureau of Chicago and Northern Illinois Steve Bernas.
