Found out my favorite agency was faking their case studies after I called one of their clients

I was looking at this big performance agency's portfolio and one of the case studies had a 300% traffic boost claim. So I called the client listed and they said they never worked with them. How many agencies do you think actually fabricate their results like this?

Right that's wild, I called out a skincare brand for faking their reviews once and they blocked me.

Called them up yourself? That's some next level detective work man. Actually pretty wild you took the time to do that but honestly smart. I bet half the agencies out there are straight up lying on their case studies. One I saw claimed a 500% conversion rate increase for a local pizza shop and I was like yeah right nobody gets numbers like that without changing the whole menu and adding delivery. The internet is full of this stuff and most people just take it at face value. You basically caught them red handed.
