Customer reviews has just become another section for sellers to plant product photos.

This seems to be the case for clothing and accessories sellers at least.

Around 5 years ago, I’d often find sellers that would plant fake customer reviews with photos in the reviews section. But even then, I’d still be able to find products with real customer photo reviews.

But now, I can’t find many products that have real customer reviews at all. If there are photos in the reviews section, it will have been placed there by the seller.

Has anyone else noticed that the fake customer reviews have gotten worse??
