QVC Informative - Fake reviews

Review by drcynthia96 on 2011-11-11
PENNSYLVANIA -- I have begun to check their reviewers on products and almost all the 5 stars only had reviewed that item. They are writing their own reviews to amp up sales. Very corrupt. They also take off negative reviews. Don't trust the reviews or check how many the reviewer has commented on. You will be shocked.

Perhaps the OP has QVC and CvS mixed up. QVC is not a pharmacy, but a television sales channel. Funny, it is based in Pennsylvania.

Actually, drcynthia96, a lot of people on these consumer sites wouldn't be shocked at all. Some of these companies have employees or 'reputation fixers' post obviously phony compliments pretty frequently. It's something you get used to. Just take a look at some of the 'testimonials' you see on infomercials or TV ads. Do we really think that some generous genius is going to make us rich with his/her "secret" method or that some actor dressed as a doctor is recommending a cure for our weak bladder? You'd hope not, but some people do and that's how scam artists stay in business. Just like the Prince in Nigeria that's sending those e-mails so he can make you rich for giving him a hand in recovering his fortune.

You are so right, Alain. I used to be a QVC customer and honestly thought they were above those tactics. But I think QVC has changed in the last several years. Even though I don't see a lot of complaints, there are still more than there used to be. I think business declined and they are doing whatever is necessary to stay afloat.

You're right, Venice. When it comes down to money, business ethics goes out the window!
