Reviews for Fakespot Fake Amazon Reviews and eBay Sellers
Fakespot Fake Amazon Reviews and eBay Sellers by Mozilla Firefox
Review by RCAdddiction
Rated 2 out of 5
by RCAdddiction, 3 years agoIt's a positive that Fakespot finally works with Firefox as well as it did in Chrome. I've stopped using Chrome due to privacy issues. I use Chrome only to shop on Amazon to see the Fakespot review and then close it.
However, it's a huge negative that FS pops up and interferes with non-Amazon, non-eBay sites. The plug-in also seems to have far too many permissions, tracking every site to which a user goes. This is a bridge too far. I'm disabling it for the moment, but likely am going to uninstall this overly intrusive tracker. Again, if there's no charge for a product, then you are the product. I'm not going to be FakeSpot's product.

- Rated 5 out of 5by DaveG3650, 6 days agohave come to rely on Fakespot and have on several occasions changed vendors because of the Fakespot reviews. Also, helpful in spotting possible scam sites.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Gaurav Tandon, 24 days agoRecently it did stop working, the buttons and links don't lead to anywhere.
The reviews on products are usually outdated and one needs to click to reanalyze items, there should be some way of auto-updating the items that are being viewed on the shopping site itself. - Rated 2 out of 5by crazycrak, a month agoI would use this if you could pick what website it collects data from. But giving it permission to collect data on all websites is a big no from me.

- Rated 5 out of 5by sKrip, a month agoHands down the BEST extension I've ever used. So much so that I created an account and gladly re-analyze and submit information to update the item/site/business info daily. I LOVE this extension.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18700021, a month agoSignificantly slows down firefox, does data collection on EVERYTHING, not just relevant websites
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18699772, a month agoAside from the questionable data collection and accuracy of the reporting, this add-on *significantly* increases the load time of the amazon page. I cannot recommend this.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Daniel S., 2 months agoEine an sich schöne und hilfreiche Erweiterung, auch wenn die Bewertungen teilweise fragwürdig sind. Es fließt mehr in die Bewertung ein als man erahnen würde, etwas mehr Transparenz (zur Bewertung der Reviews) erhält man auf der "Fakespot" eigenen Seite zum jeweiligen Produkt, diese gilt es generell mal zu besuchen, denn oft sind Bewertungen veraltet und führen bei Reanalyse zu komplett neuen Ergebnissen, so wurde schon eine "F" zu einer "A" - wenn auch nicht oft.
