  7. 7. Consumers are often exploited by sellers because individual buyers are scattered and weak compared with powerful producers. Common forms of exploitation include selling underweight goods, adulterating products with inferior or harmful substances, charging more than the printed maximum price, giving false information through misleading advertisements, and selling defective or unsafe goods. To protect consumers, the consumer movement secured several rights: the right to safety (protection against hazardous goods), the right to be informed (about price, quantity, ingredients and expiry), the right to choose freely among goods and services, the right to seek redressal of grievances and obtain compensation, and the right to represent and be heard. Consumer awareness is itself important, summed up in the slogan that the consumer should 'beware' and know their rights.
