Just Eat and Autotrader Face Fake Review Investigation
The UK's competition watchdog, the Competition and Markets Authority, is investigating five companies over fake and misleading online reviews. The five firms are Just Eat, Autotrader, Feefo, Dignity and Pasta Evangelists. The CMA is examining whether they broke consumer law by inflating star ratings, suppressing negative reviews, or offering customers undisclosed incentives in exchange for positive feedback.
