@@blowc1612 sometimes those long reviews are fake, especially the “1 star” ones. Usually coming from a competitor. I was a victim of that on eBay. Ended up with 10 negative reviews from user names that had never bought from me. All 10 of them linked and recommended another seller. All long winded and detailed. The ironic thing is, I had only sold 8 of the product and ended up with 18 reviews, 8 positive ones and 10 negative ones. Took me months to get eBay to do something about it, course this was prior to verified review. Another thing I’ve heard of happening to other sellers, is a product ordered, after it ships they have the ability to write a review. They then cancel while it’s enroute and have the package rerouted back. They write a negative review, get their money back. I’ve also heard of sellers doing the same and writing positive ones. I personally scan the reviews looking at midrange stars, then I go look at reviews for the same product at other sites. It’s often not the seller but the product that’s crap...

Until I saw this today, I did consider both the positive and negative reviews. Now, I'll trust only the negative ones. Good going, Amazon. I doubt I am the only one with this reaction. You could have prevented this, and now all your associated merchants suffer. If the positive review is well written, pointing out specitic details about the product, I will still consider them. Fake reviews tend to have the stench of generic spam.

At first it made me think he was having an affair, because they were sending the most outlandish shit that I knew he would never use. The packages were just piling up. So he clearly wasn't buying all of this shit for another woman. Then I thought maybe he had opened a business and didn't wanna tell me. The packages were so excessive.

This happened to me today. I received a storage cabinet piece of furniture, and ironically I was also expecting another piece of storage cabinet furniture today too. So the funny part is that the first large package that I thought was mine, turned out to technically not be mine. So I had to go back downstairs in my building to check if the other one was mine and surely enough it was the one I ordered. And the worst part is the package that wasn't mine, I had already opened up fully and didn't know what to do with it. I even triple-checked the box to make sure I didn't accidentally take someone else's package but it really did have my name and apartment number on it. So I decided to keep it and assembled it too. It's a very awkward situation to be in. And it's also the first time it's ever happened to me.

I use to work for AMAZON (CC)and I can say with out a doubt that in the WEST Amazon do not care about fraud or scams or any of this stuff as long as they get a sale and their commission. They do not care. I use to see this all the time and its much worse around seasonal holidays and has exploded during the pandemic. We would report it but Amazon would always say it was not an issue and not to be concerned and actively dissuaded us to pursue these issues. There is a reason amazon has been so successful and part of that is they have almost no standards and will not punish sellers who bring in regular business. Sadly again this is mostly a Chinese seller problem simply due to the culture where misleading a customer is not as big a deal as it is or was in the West. Do not trust Amazon and always take to social media first to report suspicious activities to see if you are alone. More often than not you will be one of countless thousands. The lady at the end is wrong. You do not want these goods as you can be considered as part of the scam and have your account shut down as a result if you keep them. Also if you are sent items which might be embarrassing this could also cause arguments and even violent assaults as we had a number of complaints where a partner became suspicious of these gifts. There is nothing good about this scam and even those who temp benefit end up being duped on Amazon by fake reviews which they later complain about despite being part of the problem through their complicit actions. The problem is few people will see this and this issue is escalating daily and within the year become systemic causing entire legitimate sellers businesses to collapse hurting the Uk and UK economy once again while rival markets succeed. Amazon could do something, do a lot more and they have all the proposal and plans in place but they chose not to act because there isn't sufficient deterrents while consumers fail to complain and they are making record profits. We are making our own bed and we will have to lie in it.

Three months after we moved, the new homeowner called to say an Amazon package for us had been delivered there. It was addressed to my husband, who NEVER orders from Amazon. It was charged to a credit card he NEVER uses. It was a $400 red Vitamix blender. My husband doesn’t even know what a blender is! I contacted the credit card company. They reversed the charge and canceled the card. I called Amazon and explained to the rep. He could find no record of any order on either of our accounts and no history of a charge to that credit card. I tried to return it, but without an order number I couldn’t generate a shipping label. The next person I talked to at Amazon couldn’t understand the situation enough to help me. I ended up giving it to the guy who bought our house. I didn’t need or want it and red is not my color. I’m still trying to make sense of it.
