Vendor Accounts using multiple new accounts

[Scambusta]

I’ve seen some vendors who have MULTIPLE suspicious looking reviews from new accounts with only 1 post to their name.

Is this something that we can prevent vendor accounts from doing? So we can weed out fake reviews from the real ones…? I would feel a lot more confident in who I do business with if we could prevent the sketchy vendors from getting away with this..

Also I’ve noticed some vendors that seem to be legit also doing this. They can have a mixed bag of decent reviews from real people who paid for sponsorship, and a bunch of reviews from “new member” accounts with only 1 post. I don’t know why a vendor would feel the need to post fake reviews when they already have real accounts leaving what seems to be mostly positive reviews.. is it to make them seem more reputable? Or is it a sign that they are selective scamming or what is the deal with that..?

I noticed it to before I joined. I even take that into consideration when dispensing additional bonus product for reviews because it does look fishy. But with some sections being open to the public it does make sense that some people would join just to leave the review, but the broken English 1 day accounts saying "ku crystal very good" is obviously suspicious. The best thing you can do in a situation like that is just use common sense and check for red flags.

It's an example. There's been multiple Chinese vendors that make accounts selling KU crystal and the same thing played out multiple time's from what I've seen. User's ask what is KU crystal yada yada then like clockwork one day user accounts come in giving reviews like "i place order he very fast ku crystal very good". It doesn't just apply to KU crystal it's simply an obvious example.
