Went to Google Play to complain about Hulu. I noticed Google advertising that over 300 reviews had the verbatim quote “watch and movies that you love”. It’s always confusing that buggy corporate apps have >95% 5 star reviews until you see that the majority are just completely fake, and no one cares or is doing anything about it.

        Haha I see what you mean. If it works as suggested that would actually help me out a lot though, thats why I got excited. There are certain types of products where I know from the start that 99% of the reviews are fake. There cant be 50.000 people buying the exact same model of screen protector for my noname phonethat not even 50k people own.

          Sometimes I’ve noticed that a seller will repurpose the product page for a previously seemingly legitimate product with good reviews to sell something entirely unrelated while benefiting from the positive reviews of the prior product.
