    Really? I think it’s not helping an online store if it’s review system can’t be trusted.

      People still fall for obvious online scams, crypto bots and email phishing, and you think there aren’t enough people won’t fall for fake reviews? Amazon has great damage control, they’ll most likely offer mad users deals they can’t refuse to prevent them from writing a bad review. I’ve been offered same product or a close enough product for free when I complained to Amazon support.

      Amazon isn’t some startup that few bad news can take down anymore. They’ll say they investigated themselves, make a pr statement that they banned thousands of fake accounts and people will eat it up. It can keep expanding in new markets and keep the bad reviews rolling in while some mad customers scream into the void.
