How to read this check

  • Suspicious means our analysis gave the review a trust score under 40 out of 100: vague praise with no personal detail, marketing language, signs of a free or discounted product, a very short or empty review, or a reviewer whose other reviews follow the same pattern.
  • The adjusted rating counts trustworthy reviews at full weight, discounts doubtful ones, and gives recent reviews slightly more weight than old ones. It is a guide to how the product might rate without unreliable reviews, not a measurement of the product.
  • The sample is whatever Review Radar users have scanned: usually the reviews Amazon shows first, so it is not random and it is not complete. The more people scan a product, the better its check becomes.

Questions about this check

Does a high share of suspicious reviews mean the product is bad?

No. It means the reviews are a less reliable guide than the star rating suggests. Sellers of good products buy reviews too. Read the detailed verified-purchase reviews, including the critical ones, and judge the product from those.

How does Review Radar decide a review is suspicious?

Each review is read by an AI model that looks for the known signs of fake and incentivised reviews, such as generic praise that could apply to any product, marketing phrases, references to free or discounted items, and reviews that recite the listing's features. It also uses patterns across products: reviewers who leave the same kind of review everywhere, repeated phrases, and bursts of reviews on the same day. The result is a trust score and a plain-English reason, shown next to each review in the extension.

Why has only a small number of reviews been analysed?

Review Radar runs in the browser of people shopping on Amazon, and this page is built from what they have scanned. A product most users look at once contributes a page or two of reviews. Products that get scanned more often build up a bigger, more reliable sample. You can add to it by installing the extension and opening the product's reviews.
