 |  Amazon sues operators of 10,000 Facebook groups over fake review schemes Amazon's long-running campaign against fake reviews just enjoyed some success. TechCrunchreports that Amazon has sued the administrators of more than 10,000 Facebook groups for attempting to coordinate fake reviews in exchange for free products or money. The group operators tried to recruit people in the US, UK, four European countries and Japan. One of the larger examples, Amazon Product Review, tried to avoid detection by "obfuscating" letters in phrases used to detect activity like this. Meta pulled the 43,000-member earlier this year. https://www.engadget.com/amazon-sues...2.html?src=rss |
