I'm a native German speaker but never heard 'Abschreckungsbeispiel'. But 'abschreckendes Beispiel' is quite common.

There is a (mean) saying: -Niemand ist unnütz, er kann immer noch als abschreckendes Beispiel dienen ' - No one is useless, they can still be a bad example.

So for me at least people having suggestions for European products could be quite a big help.
