Most of the shopping at Amazon checks reviews for certain products to ensure it is worth the money obtained with difficulty. However, many of whom often shop at Amazon may not realize how rampant false reviews are on the website. There are many brands that pay people who buy their products for reviews, sometimes distribute gift cards to attract buyers to leave five-star reviews.
Naturally, Amazon has a policy on false reviews. Some electronic makers and very popular electronic accessories have been booted from Amazon for allegedly violating the policy. The latest brand to fall afoul from the False Amazon review policy called RAVPower, battery maker and popular cellphone charger.
Amazon has confirmed that all RAVPower products have been removed from the virtual store shelves. There is no official word from Amazon about why he removes RAVPower products. During the weekend, a journalist from the Wall Street Journal named Nicole Nguyen posted to Twitter and purchased the RAVPower charger, he bought a card inside a $ 35 gift card with a reward review.
While Amazon has not confirmed that the tweet is the reason RavePower products were removed from their markets, the closeness of the Tweet and the removal of the product is clear. RAVPower is not the first popular brand on Amazon to be removed from the store. Previously Aukey and MPOW were also removed from the Amazon storefront. Although there is no specific reason for the deletion offered, it seems that the false review policy produces products that are removed.
Meanwhile, since writing, you can still find some AUKEY products listed on Amazon. However, it seems that all those labeled Ravpower have been removed. It should be noted that false reviews are not limited to electronics on Amazon. I bought a spray bottle pump to use oil for the spices of the cast iron pan early this year, based on many five-star reviews. When the product enters, it is a card that offers a $ 10 gift card if I show them that I leave a five-star review for the product that is the same as the same amount. Booked a product based on many good reviews just to find paid reviewers to make the review quite disturbing.
