Misuses of Tele Marketing 
The misuses of telemarketing are as follows : 
a) 
Telemarketing companies call at almost any hour of the day or night. To 
avoid the inconvenience to consumers in the U.S.A., the Federal 
Communications Commission has instructed to call the customers 
between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m. 
b) 
Telemarketing companies call all the members on phone whose numbers 
are found in the telephone directory. Hence, companies are advised to 
prepare a list of consumers who do not want to be called to avoid 
inconvenience to non-desirous persons. 
c) 
Another disputed telemarketing method is that the computers are used to 
dial the phone numbers which automatically deliver the pre-recorded 
messages and even accept the orders. Thus violates the consumers right 
of privacy. 
E-Commerce 
Trade and Commerce between individuals is as old as the existence of 
mankind. The latest to join the list is Electronic Commerce, which is popularly 
known as e-commerce. Electronic commerce is defined as the actual buying 
and selling of goods or services electronically on line. Products are displayed in 
an on-line store and potential customers can read information about the products 
see them on the website and have the option to purchase them online. Any 
product can be sold online and all the principles of business apply to this also.
