Valerie Zhong, the administrator of the Club Ki-Fair group on Facebook, made a simple commitment: Join her group and get free samples of household products. However, what she failed to mention is that you have to write amazon reviews in order to get a gift or even a refund.

Factory of Fake Amazon Reviews Inside a Facebook Group
The group promises goodies like books, nail paint, or even other cosmetics for the individuals who are willing to participate in the activity.
In this group, we will always offer you wonderful and excellent products for a free trial,” Zhong posted to Club Ki-Fair. Amazon had been facing the problem of fake reviews for a long period of time. They even have this system in place that is going to do regular sweeps on the system to check for any unusual activity or suspicious behavior.
Last year Amazon had removed 200 million suspected fake reviews. However, the problem does not seem to be solved ultimately because the fake reviews and the reviewers are always popping up.
“We have seen an increasing trend of bad actors attempting to solicit fake reviews outside Amazon, particularly via social media services,” the blog post read. “Some use social media services on their own; in other cases, they hire a third-party service provider to perpetuate this activity on their behalf.”
Final Words
The group had been notorious for making people writing fake reviews. “This group has been simply wonderful,” said one group member, who went on to praise a combination blow-dryer and hair-brush for helping “achieve hair volume” in her straight, fine hair, before adding, “This is the perfect hair styler tool, and as a bonus, it is super easy to use!”
This goes without saying that all such groups have become a menace to the big companies. Thanks for reading.
