E616: I bought Fake Amazon Reviews. Here's How They Work.


Listen Later

Dave dives into the world of fake Amazon reviews by purchasing a fake review for himself. He shares where he found a review broker, what the requirements were to purchase reviews, and the shocking surprise he found after. 

We get a lot of spam in our Facebook groups about "review groups". 

Its become so prevalent that we decided to actually dig in and see how their whole operation works. 

And we did exactly just that. 

In this episode, Dave goes through the experience of buying a fake review and exposes what the full capabilities of review brokers are, where they are from, and how they manage to dodge Amazon.

If you're a seller on Amazon or if you're tired seeing odd reviews for products that aren't really that exciting, this episode is for you.
