Sounds like an ideal case for Trading Standards to pursue under the Trade
Descriptions Act.
However I suspect that complaints from the public are very few and far

They will probably continue to get away with it because it's not in the
public interest to spend thousands of pounds of taxpayers money chasing
them. There are far more serious fish to fry.

Pity, Caveat Emptor!
