How to Remove Community Guidelines-Violating Reviews?
**📌 How to Remove Community Guidelines-Violating Reviews?**
Hello,
I am experiencing multiple customer reviews on my product listing that seem to **violate Amazon’s Community Guidelines**. Despite reporting them, Amazon has not taken action. I am looking for the best approach to escalate this issue and successfully request review removal.

**🚨 Problematic Reviews (Guideline Violations)**
1️⃣ **FBA-Related Complaints (Not About the Product)**
- Customers complain about **damaged/missing items or incorrect return evaluations**, but my product is **fulfilled by Amazon (FBA)**.
- These reviews unfairly impact my ratings despite being **Amazon’s fulfillment issue, not a product defect**.
2️⃣ **Direct Competitor Mentions & Promotion**
- Some reviews **name competitors and encourage buyers to switch** (e.g., *"Brand X is better, buy theirs instead."*).
- This seems to violate **Amazon’s anti-competitor promotion policy**.
3️⃣ **Baseless Negative Reviews**
- Examples: *"This is the worst product ever."* / *"Don’t buy this garbage."*
- No actual product experience is shared, just general negativity.
4️⃣ **False & Misleading Information**
- Claims like *"This product contains toxic ingredients."* or *"This brand is a scam."*
- These statements **spread misinformation and harm brand credibility**.
5️⃣ **Competitor-Abuse Reviews (Fake/Coordinated Attacks)**
- **Suspicious patterns:**
- Similar phrasing across multiple negative reviews.
- Accounts leaving reviews **never purchased the product**.
- Likely **a competitor targeting my listing with fake reviews**.

**📌 Actions Taken (So Far)**
✅ **Reported reviews via “Report Abuse”**
✅ **Contacted Seller Support** to explain guideline violations
✅ **Emailed community-help team** with details of the issue
Despite these efforts, the reviews remain.

**📌 Questions & Next Steps**
- Can Amazon confirm these **violate Community Guidelines** and remove them?
- What is the **most effective way to escalate** this issue?
- Is there a **manual review process** Amazon staff can initiate?
- How does Amazon handle **competitor-abuse fake reviews**?
If anyone has **successfully resolved** similar issues, I’d appreciate any advice.
Thanks! 🚀
