Jim works in the marketing department of TVGAMEBOX.com which is a company that provides a television box that adds games to a user's existing tv subscription and is based in Cork. Jim has been missing his sales targets for the past few months and is coming under pressure from his boss. The tv game box needs to connect remotely to the customer's existing tv box with their existing tv provider. However, a lot of tv boxes aren't compatible with the game box but there is an expensiveadaptor that can be bought from another company that will make it compatible with all tv provider boxes. Jim is behind again this month on his sales targets again. He decides that he needs to do something to boost his sales figures, so he begins telling customers that the game box is compatible with all existing tv boxes in the hope that when they find out that their tv box is not compatible, they will just buy the adaptor.

What are the potential legal issues on the scenario above? And can you please explain me the law on these issues?
