• (2023-03-19) Deborah Jensen: I rely on Fakespot when I'm buying online.
• (2023-03-17) Dushyanth Auwihare: do not shop without consulting and updating any outdatd reviews in it. I would have loved to see this extension work on other shopping sites as well.
• (2023-03-17) V: I don't buy rando stuff without this
• (2023-03-16) Janis Dauer: Valuable tool, will not shop without using it
• (2023-03-14) Ruthann Webb: It really does well checking Amazon reviews and indicating which sellers are safe. Such a time saver for online shoppers!
• (2023-03-14) Mehran Karvandi: It is fantastic, wish to work on eBay too! It doesn't work on eBay.de
• (2023-03-14) Ehud Zion Waldoks: Very useful, glad to steer clear of shady sellers.
• (2023-03-14) John Cramer: It's very useful for knowing which items have real reviews and which are mostly fake.
• (2023-03-12) Heidi Knuth: This a great app. It takes the guesswork out of what I am purchasing. Also shocks me at companies that are messing with their ratings!
• (2023-03-12) Kiera Gillock: Definitely makes me feel more comfortable about purchasing online, and I'm happy to see it expanding to non-Amazon websites!
• (2023-03-10) Laurie N.: Works great! Has protected me from fly-by-night sellers and sellers with mixed reviews on Amazon while recommending better-rated, more established and reliable sellers.
• (2023-03-10) Pam Cairns: I love FakeSpot and won't buy anything without it! Thank you for filtering out all of the fake reviews!
• (2023-03-10) Paul Wieland: I trust FakeSpot and depend on it. That doesn't mean I don't retain some healthy skepticism. Smile!
• (2023-03-07) Joe Lombardi: Absolutely indispensable. Use it religiously to filter out the BS reviews. Has saved me a lot af aggravation.
• (2023-03-07) Ron Dommer: Use it religiously. Not an A ... no sale ...
• (2023-03-07) Jacqueline Lege: Use it all the time.
• (2023-03-06) J Renee Magrum: I always check reviews on any seller platform. Thanks to Fakespot, I now can verify that products that are reviewed as too good or too bad to be true are frequently fakes. I feel Fakespot has saved me from wasting a lot of money.
• (2023-03-05) elina rozenberg: I think Fakespot is a must if you want to make informative decisions about your purchases. I always take into consideration the adjustment made by Fakespot.
• (2023-03-05) The Bearded Curmudgeon (LM): If you shop on Amazon or any other major shopping site Fakespot is a must have! There used to be a time where you could usually believe a review of a product, that is no longer possible (except for my reviews, you can absolutely believe my reviews).
• (2023-03-04) Bob Plant: Fake Spot has helped me immensely in narrowing down choices and alerting me to sellers with a lot of complaints. I have been frustrated when Fake spot gives me suggestions that do not link me to the product on Amazon or suggests a seller that offers free shipping when that is not actually the case.
• (2023-03-02) Janet Montgomery: I loved Fakespot in the beginning. It really helped me to determine if an item on Amazon was as good/bad as the reviews claimed. Unfortunately, the recent iterations and the browser extension leave me wanting. So many items have negative reviews, and it appears more that the Fakespot algorithm is having trouble identifying good/bad reviews. Disappointed.
• (2023-03-01) Elizabeth Jones: I find it helpful to give me an idea of the veracity of reviews. I especially like the percentage of reviews altered or changed by Amazon. It gives some idea of how many are trustworthy.
• (2023-02-28) Mark: Not perfect, but a great indicator for confident buying. Use it as a guide, but it is not flawless. For the most par it is a great ally in filtering out the deception. At the same time it can also prevent showing of less reviewed, lower cost options.
• (2023-02-27) Fred Black: Always use it to confirm Amazon reviews.
• (2023-02-27) Ben Reaves: unfortunately, Amzon has some unreliable sellers recently. So Fakespot is very helpful to spot them. I also know some people who write fake reviews as a side job :( Fakespot catches them.
• (2023-02-27) Kenneth Perry: Works great! I appreciate the insight it provides.
• (2023-02-27) Debbie: I rely on Fakespot a lot!
• (2023-02-25) Dennis OConnell: I use both Fakespot and Review Meta. Between the 2, I have a pretty good estimate on the credibility of the reviews.
• (2023-02-24) Scott Mann: It's pretty great. I always double check Amazon reviews with it. I think it's more reliable than Amazon reviews by themselves, given all the deceptive sellers and reviewers. The safe seller ratings are nice, too.
• (2023-02-24) T B: Time Saver So I'm Not a Money Waster!
• (2023-02-24) Rick Egbert: Filters out the distracting, ridiculous search results and in my last search, it found a less expensive seller that did not appear in the Amazon search!
• (2023-02-23) Marilyn Meyers: I use this every time I order from Amazon. It's insight really helps me make better purchase decisions
• (2023-02-22) Richard Flower: Works great! Helps weed out the bad reviews, as they're are so many fake ones out there today
• (2023-02-22) Markus G: Since many months I was wondering why my Amazon website experience was horrible and my browser was using 99% CPU on the Amazon websites ... now after removing this extension I know it ... it was this extension totally messing up the Amazon website and consuming 99% CPU. Absolutely horrible. Luckily I finally found out after trying and trying. It also made the Amazon website 'jump' up and down ... mostly down without doing anything. I was just on some listing overview and .... bang ... down on the website and lost where I was. This plugin should be removed from the store. It's almost dangerous.
• (2023-02-20) Abhay Tomar: fantastic extension it saved my money for buying garbage
• (2023-02-18) KarL Stroud: It uses grammar and review history to spot obvious review bots and paid shills and adjust the "real" review score accordingly. Worth every penny. Also free.
• (2023-02-16) agnish kusari: Amazing app
• (2023-02-15) Dexios S. Divine: If its not at least a B on this I don't buy it lol
• (2023-02-14) Randy Dexter: I like how Fakespot was able to analyze a page that was not analyzed and give comments and a rating.
• (2023-02-13) Jeremy Stansell: Fakespot provides useful data, although I would like to know more about where it comes from.
• (2023-02-09) Jamie Hinojosa: Works very well and helps me to make good purchase decisions. Amazon doesn't seem to care about it's customers when it comes to protecting them from fake or deceitful sellers.
• (2023-02-09) Larry Broughton: Use it all the time, it has been very helpful. I have decided not to order some things because it had a bad review that I would not have gotten without Fakespot.
• (2023-02-09) Marigold and Dan Fernandez: I use it for EVERY purchase. Though this is not 100% perfect, it gives me an added layer of peace-of-mind and visibility into likely-truer ratings. Recommend that everyone use it.
• (2023-02-09) Charles Crocker: It does make me feel more secure when making a purchase by being a second set of eyes on the merchants. It is only a guide. I purchased an item on Ebay and it flagged my seller as questionable but after the purchase I had nothing but a good experience with the seller.
• (2023-02-08) Jean: I appreciate the ability to do research as much as possible on items I order or buy online and Fakespot is a positive tool that I continue to use. It really helps to cut down on reading a bunch of reviews (if available) and hope you have made the better choice. Currently use on Amazon, EBay and Walmart. Would like to see available on other sites as well!
• (2023-02-05) Arnold Magy: Fakespot has improved my shopping comfort, reduced buyer stress and made it possible for me to scope-out some possibly to likely 'bad actors' in Ebay and Amazon. I wish Fakespot was available in more market/shopping venues.
• (2023-02-04) Jeanine Joy, Ph.D.: Has helped me avoid bad sellers on both Amazon and Ebay.
• (2023-02-03) Thomas T Pham: Wouldn't buy anything on Amazon without it. Great tool and many thanks!
• (2023-02-03) Roxxco Roxx: helps with all the choices
• (2023-02-03) Shiann Hanlon: it helps you figure out what's good to get and whats not good to get

• (2023-02-09, v:0.9.26) Fico Prieto: Plugin keeps sorting items unexpectedly.

  Bonjour, je viens de m'apercevoir que je suis abonnée pour être abonnée à être livrée pour une bouteille de vodka tous les 15 jours il me semble et le vin blanc tous les mois, ce que je ne désire absolument pas. Merci de résilier ces contrats que je n'ai jamais demandé au plus vite.Bien cordialement. Céline.
• (2022-12-28, v:0.9.23) クーパークリス: "Top Product" in FakeSpot's "Trusted Deals" section is a product with 100% of its reviews for a completely different product!
  This product was suggested with a badge for "Top Product" in FakeSpot's "Trusted Deals" bar that sits below the product photo/details section on Amazon. This product is an Anti-Snoring Device, however all of the almost 1,000 reviews are for some kind of 'liniment' (muscle relaxing compound?) from Thailand... Fakespot Link: https://www.fakespot.com/product/anti-snoring-devices-magnetic-anti-snoring-ring-provides-the-effective-snoring-solution-to-stop-snoring-large Amazon Product Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BKGHBL2K Beyond this, I've seen a number of legitimate and well-known brands showing with F-ratings for the seller and or product despite having positive ratings and seemingly genuine reviews. I don't know what happened to FakeSpot, but I can no longer trust your extension to recognize a legitimate seller/product or a fake seller/product.
• (2022-11-30, v:0.9.22) Daniel Barbat: Blocking ADS on Amazon
  Whenever Fakespot Extension is enabled, I don't see any ad on Amazon I need this extension to detect fake reviews, if I want to block ads there are other extensions can you fix this please?
• (2022-11-11, v:0.9.21) Jack Egan: Data collection concerns
  Why is authentication information collected by this extension? From your privacy policy, the following is collected: User ID: Such as screen name, handle, account ID, or other user- or account-level ID that can be used to identify a particular user or account. This information could be provided via your Fakespot account, Apple ID, Google Account, or other accounts you may use on the Services. User ID also includes your account password, other credentials, security questions, and confirmation codes.
• (2022-11-02, v:0.9.20) Chris Hawryluk: Content Security Policy of your site blocks the use of 'eval' in JavaScript`
  You need to fix your plugins code. The Content Security Policy (CSP) prevents the evaluation of arbitrary strings as JavaScript to make it more difficult for an attacker to inject unathorized code on your site. To solve this issue, avoid using eval(), new Function(), setTimeout([string], ...) and setInterval([string], ...) for evaluating strings. If you absolutely must: you can enable string evaluation by adding unsafe-eval as an allowed source in a script-src directive. ⚠️ Allowing string evaluation comes at the risk of inline script injection. 1 directive Source Location Directive Status script-src blocked

  When I tap the "Sign up with Google" button on the Sign Up page, nothing happens. Same with the "Sign in with Google" button. In other apps this button would open another window where I can choose which of my Google accounts I wish to use. I assume it's supposed to do the same here. Note: I hag no problem with this button on my Android phone, only my Chromebook. Thanks. Eddie Hewgley
• (2021-10-06, v:0.8.62) Robert Cohen: Amazon searches return without the searched for item in first place, consistently!
  Hi, Ever since I've been using Fakespot I've notice a real annoyance: when I search for an item on Amazon, even something as specific as a book title in the Kindle Store, the returned results show the item I want at the top, but only for a second. Before I can click on it the result is re-sorted with the desired item somewhere in the list. I have to do a browser find, Ctrl-F, to find the one I want again. I've grown used to this behavior and adjusted for it, hoping it would eventually be fixed but it's been months and months and no change. I'm on Chrome for Windows 10: Version 94.0.4606.71 (Official Build) (64-bit). Other active extensions include Pixel Block; Library Extension; Norton Safe Web. Thanks for looking into this issue. I can't be the only one. Robert

• (2021-02-18, v:0.8.47) Patricia Nease: Grade A Not Earned!
  Lsghome Half Round Fireplace Carpet, described as a "rug" and a "mat" is nothing but a thin piece of plastic. The item has to be returned to sender in China at the owner's expense, which is NOT noted in the description. It is a piece of trash and several reviews note the same - yet ONE gave it 5 stars. And you give it an "A" rating. I'm surprised at Amazon allowing this vendor to do business on their site.

• (2020-12-01, v:0.8.41) Roque Mozingo: Useful tool! but...
  Sort by Fakespot feature (on Amazon) doesn't work. When it's sorted still 4 star and 3.5 stars are mixed in with 4.5 star results. Even when you exclude Amazon's sponsored results and Editorial Recommendations the sorting of the rest doesn't work.

  Love your app, thanks! A couple of thoughts, sometimes (increasingly, lately) products come as Unavailable when being analyzed, I guess for some reason (I have a feeling the sellers try to somehow hide!), but then you request us to let you know, I cannot see how to do it! Also, just wondering, if an item by Breville is shipped and sold by Amazon, who might be fudging the reviews when there is a C or D rating? Curious! Thx again! Adrian
