Had a company use harvested emails to bulk ask for a 5 star review for a company, I had never done any business with them or heard of them prior to this. Reported to Trustpilot, nothing done, reported again still citing the original email with headers from the domain of the company spamming for reviews, nothing done again.
Checked their page on Trustpilot, anytime someone bashed them for it, they claimed to have no idea who the person was and Trustpilot removed the post. Yet, for the same people praising the idea of bulk spamming for reviews they left those 5 star reviews in place.
If all a company has to do is deny any knowledge of the party complaining then it's a garbage system. Don't put any trust in Trustpilot and if you want to imply credibility for your own business don't use them either as at least for me it implies they have something to hide.
