Answer:

The use of weasel words

Step-by-step explanation:

Weasel words are words that are used to make ambiguous statements or phrases that seem and sound positive and promising to the reader or listening audience. they are actually deceptive and are used as an advertising technique to get customers wanting to patronize and enjoy the promises they must have assumed listening to the Weasel words used for the advert.

Weasel words are deceptive in nature because they only create an impression which is usually good and enticing to the listening audience about something whereas in the real sense it is just an ambiguous statement that has just been made.
