Mystery Customer Program

At MR FOG, ensuring the safety and satisfaction of our customers is paramount. To further strengthen our commitment to quality service, we are introducing the MR FOG Mystery Customer Program.

Key Components of the Initiative:

● Engagement of Undercover Customers: Our Regulatory Compliance Team is tasked with recruiting authentic consumers to act as Mystery Customers. They will visit both online and offline stores or websites to purchase MR FOG products. If any store or website fails to conduct age verification as required, the information will be reported back to our Regulatory Compliance Team.

● Inspection Frequency: Mystery Customers will randomly inspect two online websites and three offline stores within a quarter at any given time.

Why It Matters:

This initiative is designed to ensure that our products are only accessible to appropriate-age consumers, fostering a shopping environment that is safe and trustworthy. We are committed to taking strict actions, including ceasing cooperation with stores or websites found to be non-compliant with age verification requirements.
