Answer:

c. puffery

Step-by-step explanation:

Puffery happens when advertisers are trying to encourage people across different techniques to purchase a product or service.

A business can send an amusing advertisement about its product, contrast the product to a similar item, mention product details, or make broad statements about the product that can not be proven to be true.
