That's not an actual scenario. Customer service can see if the person purchased the product or not. Getting a "troll army" to all buy and return products and call in complaints on actual purchases while waiting on refunds is a much higher bar.


It's a trivial bar to surpass. If sellers are willing to pay people to buy and give product reviews, there's no doubt they'd do the same to taint a competing seller.
