    Once I reported a listing, because it was initially selling something like hair clips, got great reviews, and then somehow changed everything to a BBQ Grill whilst keeping all the old reviews.

    The listing was still up a couple of months later. Half five star reviews about some random product, half bad reviews about how the grill would randomly collapse or something.

      I often see products with multiple different model options (for example, monitors) but most of the reviews are about the old models, essentially boosting their review count on day one with reviews from the past.
