We have been selling on Amazon for over 20 years and have older reviews that existed before Amazon would verify people were customers. Fakespot seems to consider these all negative/fake. Easy fix would be at a minimum to not count orders before a certain date (that Amazon verified purchases). And when Amazon didn't require it (being verified) but did have some verified, my guess is our demographic was less likely to login. We never paid for reviews other than grapeview review when a product was new. Our industry has thousands of smaller competitors that we suspect are posting negative fake reviews especially on top sellers.
