Volkswagen tops the list of 10 companies that caught lying to the public, deceived customers, with a scandal that led to paying out over $25 billion in penalties, restitution and fines. So what exactly did Volkswagen do? They put in software in their cars which were designed to beat diesel tests, changing the results to ensure they did not cross the emissions threshold. They sold over 580,000 vehicles on their clean diesel initiative, and has become one of the biggest scandals globally to have ever occurred.
