A couple of days ago a screenshot went viral in which you can see a conversation from an Instagram chat where a young influencer called Manuela Gutiérrez writes to a restaurant to offer “an advertising swap.”
The young woman specifies that In exchange for a free meal for her and her boyfriend, she would do some stories to publicize the restaurant. This was shared by chef Édgar Núñez, mocking the situation and going viral on social media.

Thousands of criticisms arose due to this case since some considered Manuela Gutiérrez to be an "opportunistic" person.. She came out to defend herself in her Instagram stories where she mentions that only It was an offer that should be taken as a job opportunity.
I continue saying: “I know that many people disagree with these ways of working, but the reality is that many creators get paid to do this. When they write to us to offer their services, they pay us, and many other times it is normal for us to write to them.”
