An Australian online retailer apologized for using bushfires in Tasmania to try to increase followers on Facebook. The company said it would donate generators depending on how many new likes its page got, which drew criticism for opportunistically exploiting the crisis. Similarly, McDonald's #McDStories campaign was hijacked by customers sharing negative experiences, forcing the promotion to end early. When a Red Cross employee accidentally tweeted about drinking beer from the organization's account, it handled it well with humor and transparency, turning it into a positive that encouraged donations.
