Amazon Fake Review Scam: Do you also read product reviews when shopping from Amazon and Flipkart? You buy the goods only after reading these reviews. If yes, then you may find it difficult to do this work. Because the reviews on these shopping websites are also fake. Many times these companies also write fake reviews and this is not right for the customers. It has been heard many times that e-commerce websites write fake reviews and customers buy goods after reading them. It is said that action can be taken on websites doing this kind of work. Some time ago it has been said that if any company did this then strict steps would be taken against such websites.
As The Times reports, the proposed new laws are meant to tell businesses like Trustpilot, Amazon, and Tripadvisor that what they are doing should be stopped. There are several methods that can be adopted to curb fake reviews.
Customers need to be aware:
If the customers are a little alert, then they will not fall into such a bluff. This can be avoided if customers pay little attention. By using some tools, customers can avoid this scam. The tools we are talking about include ReviewMeta, Fakespot, The Review Index extension, etc.
Use the tools like this:
To use these tools, you have to go to desktop Chrome or Firefox browser. After that, you have to download any of these extensions. After this, you have to go to the product page and copy its product URL. Then go to the website or extension and paste this URL. Then you can check the product review from here. Most importantly, if a product has been given 5 stars, then definitely check its review because it can be fake.
