AppSally and Rebatest orchestrate the posting of fake reviews on Amazon, the company says.
Amazon is suing two websites that allegedly used their networks of more than 900,000 users to post fake reviews to e-commerce marketplaces. AppSally and Rebatest operate as “fake review brokers,” Amazon said in an announcement. In AppSally’s case, the website allows merchants to buy Amazon reviews for as little as $20. Rebatest, on the other hand, asks interested users to first buy a product from Amazon; it’ll then refund the cost in exchange for a review. Amazon review services on AppSally “The lawsuits aim to shut down two major fake review brokers, AppSally and Rebatest, who helped mislead shoppers by having their members try to post fake reviews in stores such as Amazon, eBay, Walmart, and Etsy,” according the Amazon.
