As used in this chapter, "seller" means a person who, personally, through salespersons, or through the use of

following occurs:
(1)
There is a false representation or implication that a prospect will receive a gift, prize, or the value
of a gift or prize.
(2)
There is an offer of a vacation at a reduced price if the vacation involves the prospect attending a
presentation in which the prospect is solicited to purchase a time share or camping club membership and if the
seller does not own the time share or camping club, does not represent the owner of the time share or camping
club, or misrepresents the value of the vacation. Terms in this subdivision have the meaning set forth in IC
32-32.
(3)
There is a representation or implication that a prospect who buys office equipment or supplies will,
because of some unusual event or imminent price increase, be able to buy these items at prices that are below

not exist.
(4)
There is a false representation or implication as to the identity of the person making the
