The other day while viewing Amazon for a scam product I noticed I couldn't see any of the 1 star reviews. There was a button to click to "request all reviews" or something like that.

Now several days later I get "Your request is not approved at this time, and you will see a limited selection of customer reviews."

This seems bonkers to me... like.... nearly fraud?

Had the same experience for a different shopping platform where they literally *take reviews from other shops selling similar products* for shops that havent sold much of that item to pass it off as their own with a tiny grey disclaimer.

How sick is that. False advertising to the extremities, and I've been watching the downpour of scummy practices from this same company over the years.
