You're In Business

The submission describes a 'market disrupting' eCommerce company, but verification reveals a small digital agency (AfriKaizen Digital) in Zimbabwe specializing in standard WordPress/WooCommerce client work. The claim that 'most people have used my product' is verifiably false and hyperbolic. The reported 'marketcap' is nonsensical for a private service agency. While the agency exists and conducts business, the submission severely misrepresents its scale, nature (service vs. product), and traction. The name 'StarFang' appears unrelated to their public presence.
