As the leading online retailer in the US and the UK, Amazon sells just about everything. And with Prime Day approaching next week (July 16 and 17)—whether you are shopping for a cheap portable charger, eco-friendly cleaning supplies, or headphones for your kids—Amazon is likely going to be your first stop.
When it's time to choose between similar-looking products, most folks rely on user reviews. The trouble is that many Amazon reviews are fake. Unscrupulous or desperate sellers pay for glowing reviews, and some offer gift cards or free products in exchange for five-star ratings.
Occasionally, sellers will even solicit false negative reviews on competing products. It's tough to identify with certainty what's real, but you can reduce the risk of being conned when you know the warning signs. We've compiled some tips that can help.
