I just learned of Fakespot and then disappointed to learn your shutting it down. I read that 10%-60% of items on Amazon are fake, it’s shocking! As consumers, how are we to protect ourselves? Enter Fakespot, a method to assess the integrity of an item. I think many people would gladly pay for a subscription to Fakespot. Please consider keeping this valuable service. From what I’ve read, many people rely on Fakespot for how their hard-earned dollars are spent. As I said, I just learned of the service and planned to download the app, then saw the notice of it being shutdown July 1st. So disappointed, please don’t shut it down!

Totally agree — Fakespot helped a lot of people make smarter choices online. With fake reviews and scams still everywhere, shoppers need a way to see what’s real.
We built FakeFind for this exact reason. FakeFind is a free fake review checker for Amazon. Paste an Amazon product link and it shows a Trust Score from 1 to 10 for how much you can trust the reviews, plus the FakeFind Rating, Amazon’s star rating with the suspicious reviews discounted. It needs no account and nothing to install. Check it out if you are looking for a Fakespot alternative: https://fakefind.ai

Like many I was upset with FakeSpot shutting down. I particularly liked the extension integration. I couldn't find an alternative that I liked so I built my own!
