Reddit has started posting purchased 5 star reviews on Apple Store, wouldn’t be surprised if they were doing on Android as well. This is illegal and you can voice your dissatisfaction with the FTC at the provided link.
I like jumping on the bandwagon as much as the next guy, but do you have any evidence of these accusations?
Only the evidence I put in my comments, all of the recent 5 star reviews have no constructive information in them other than a few random words.
They look really suspicious and the FTC would be able to verify their authenticity.
I’ve seen a few of what they’re talking about. Sometimes there’ll be a couple random words that make no sense together at all. Or incomplete thoughts.
One of the most recent in the App Store:
Title: I’m going back to work on my Contents: We will have the opportunity
It’s weird.
I would agree with you except the actual reviews look really suspicious. They come in blocks of 2-3 next to each other and they are all nonsense. And there’s a fair amount of them.
If this were a highly regarded, honest company I would give them the benefit of the doubt. Having seen numerous examples of their dishonesty in the past month I would say this is par for course.
I put a link below but here is another to a screenshot I took. https://imgur.com/a/QDDcxk8
If you go on the play store and look at the 5 star reviews vs. 1 star reviews, is does look a little suspect.
All the 1 star reviews are almost at the character limit, describing in detail why they gave it 1 star.
At least half the 5 star reviews are one sentence reviews like “interesting content”, “Works great! Thanks!!”, “Its good”, “I love it!”, and “veri gud ep” (sic).
