Another article on how Amazon reviews are being gamed.
Her Amazon purchases are real, the reviews are fake...plus she gets reimbursed....
"Third-party sellers know what it takes to make it on Amazon: Get good reviews and a high search ranking. But attracting genuine customers is tough, so some sellers use a reliable cheat — bribes. Because of Amazon’s vast scale, inscrutable algorithms, and capricious enforcement of its own rules, unscrupulous sellers and paid shills largely get away with it.
Amazon has banned giving away free products in exchange for reviews, so Jessica requested anonymity out of fear that the company would suspend her account."

Wow! Thank you for posting this. Another way to cheat the system, and it sounds pretty lucrative for the buyer (the co-scammer).
