Selected reviews

A wall of reviews only shows what the shop chooses to display, and a “verified” badge does not guarantee a purchase from this shop.

What you see

A wall of photos and enthusiastic comments, all at 4 or 5 stars, with a “Verified” badge. Stories that follow the same pattern (“I tried everything, nothing worked, then a miracle”).

How to check

  • Look at the third-party platform (Trustpilot, Google): do critical reviews appear there? What proportion are they?
  • Compare the date of the first reviews with the domain’s creation date (whois or RDAP).
  • Run a reverse image search on the review photos: some shops import reviews from other marketplaces.
  • Read the nuanced reviews: they are often the most informative.

Takeaway

A repeated review or pattern is not enough to say a review is fake. Only write it if you have a specific element (photo reused elsewhere, inconsistent date).
