Financial incentives to leave 5 star reviews
I just ordered a product and was shocked to see a card inside from the chinese seller offering £5/£10 financial incentives to leave a 5 star product review with pictures or video. The reason I bought the product was becuase of the 5 star reviews!!
Spoke to Amazon CS and apparently, this is ok as I wouldn’t leave a 5 star review unless I was happy??
Naively, I put that kind of behaviour down to buying reviews. Now it seems that you can’t trust the review system any longer.

I would get back on to SS with a link their OWN policies. This is a clear violation…

Unless Amazon are going by the unwritten rules that Chinese sellers can do whatever they please, because that seems to be their agenda these days.

Leave them a review saying they tried to pay you for their review etc etc.
