ShareKhan on the prowl?


Is it just me or are you also disturbed by the above advertisement?

The ad in question is the latest online banner ad for Sharekhan.com for their online stock brokerage / trading services. The disturbing fact is the look on the so-called "market expert" trying to put poor Karan's fears to rest.

If I were Karan and somebody like that comes along, I would genuinely be even more scared of investing into the stock market. Check out the facial expression on that guy. He looks a 100% guaranteed creep who is only interested in my money! And those glasses do nothing to hide that slyness in his eyes.

Whoever approved that ad in Sharekhan obviously hasn't heard of the nuances of emotions and expressions in advertisements. They got Karan's expressions correct though!

I will be staying away from Sharekhan.com
