People's Park Complex is fast becoming the next mall that is associated with errant retailers ripping off consumers.

The number of complaints made against retailers in the strata-titled mall has jumped from 11 in 2006 to 41 last year.

This year's number is set to surpass that of last year, with the Consumers Association of Singapore logging 40 complaints from January to August.

Typically, errant retailers reel in unsuspecting consumers by displaying ultra-low prices for mobile phones.
