If you spot a product with very obvious fake reviews, post the ASIN or link in this thread.

Two weeks ago, @Seller_jJzmcSkhsAZAf posted an especially absurd example, and it appears that a helpful moderator saw the discussion and shut down that listing.

According to Amazon's own data, last year the company attempted to shut down more than 100 websites that traffic in review fraud and scams, so it appears that fake review farming is widespread.

As suggested by @Seller_LmVi4jw3KN7eX, I looked at B01GPMRYNM.

This video cable has been sold for roughly 10 years, sold over 2,000 units last month, and has nearly 30,000 reviews. Assuming steady sales over time, that would suggest an unusually high review rate of over 12%. Our own review rates are closer to 2–3%.

This listing also seems to have a lot of "verified purchase" reviews from buyers who give nothing but 5 stars to everyone.

We've seen pay-for-review schemes where sellers enclose gift card offers in exchange for 5-star reviews, but given the sheer volume of reviews I doubt that is happening here.

What do other sellers think?

Are there any unusual patterns that stand out to you?

I watched this guy become top 10 within 10days, this is totally a New seller,

It seems that Amazon totally ignore this and pretend to not see it.

Reasons for the plague of fake reviews on Amazon — and why Amazon seems unwilling to stop it — seem like important issues, so I've started a separate discussion on that topic.
