In Italy, the law has caught up with a trader who received payment for writing fake reviews. He was sent to prison and fined 8000 Euro.

Be warned, it’s only a matter of time before we’re writing about a case in the UK.
While it may seem like a good idea to leave positive reviews for each other in a bid to offset fake or bad reviews, just don’t. Please don’t be tempted to write fake reviews for others. Or allow known false reviews to remain – even if they do benefit your business. It’s fraud. You’ll be prosecuted and there is nothing we can do here to defend or support you.
