Seller scamming buyers for Reviews!
Small rant from one seller to the community… My wife bought my daughter some TWS earphones (the standard Alibaba specials that are plastered all over this site). When she opened the box there was the attached official looking Amazon card that states she’s entitled to a gift voucher if she leaves a 5 star review… Now the irony of this is that the headphones in question only cost £9.99 so it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see that this is a complete scam… The majority of us work hard for product reviews and seller feedback and it takes an awful lot of blood sweat and tears to get our numbers up. Very disappointing to see these sellers practicing this sort of thing…
Rant over but I’m quite happy to report this scumbag, hopefully a Mod reads this and shuts the seller in question down.
Edit: to add, the seller is xin2xin and the ASIN is: B0B97VTX4Y

They won’t do anything from a forum post
As a verified buyer, have you actually reported it yourself ?

I believe this is against the rules - policy violation.

I think I will order some, neg them and open a return, a few like that may make them change their business model.

Scamming? Did they not send her the gift card?

This happened to my husband on his buying account, bought a cheap watch they emailed him to ask him for a 5 star review in exchange for a £10 gift card, they indeed paid him £10 into Paypal by using his email address? I asked him how did they get your email address? he said oh I dont know. This was a while ago now but still going on by the looks of it.

Am I misremembering, but I’m pretty sure when I order FBA, some boxes still come with all sorts of rubbish - wine club vouchers, etc. Or have they stopped that?

Is that an image of the front and back of the same card or did you actually receive a separate ‘gift’ card?

I’ve had this a few time, one even offered me £20 to review a £5 purchase!
None have been this brazen in using Amazon’s logo etc!

Ive just received one today! ACIN B0BV966PZC bought for £9.88 and offered a £50 voucher for a 5 star review!
