I have a hard time believing ANY of these reviews as they are all an advertisement for influenster. Are these real reviews?

Influenster did give us the product but they didn't force us to write a review. We were only asked to write one and the only thing we get in return is credit towards a badge. My review was real. The darn cookie just did not hold up well in my purse. Luckily, it was delicious (like every other belvita biscuit I've tried).

Fake reviews will happen, but that doesn't mean they are all fake. I just popped on didn't see this earlier. Can't say for everyone but certainly working for me, helping to lower my appetite.

This product page is packed full of suspicious reviews. Whoever is doing this is even buying Google adwords which tout the great reviews that are now available to read on the Amazon page. What a shame. Especially since the product is pretty good and should sell quite well on its own, just through standard word-of-mouth. But the manufacturer has potentially buried all of the real, honest reviews with the hype. I can't trust them, and on principle I have to object.

They're likely not real. Many of the so-called results have photos clearly taken in different areas/lighting or even shopped. So many reviews are clearly one-sided and sound forced. Put more weight on the reviews that list pros/cons and don't use ostentatious vocabulary.

Definitely fake. I'm on week 3 with NO results. All other brands have the same kind of reviews and the "people" only have 1 review to their name. Total SCAM. I hope you were able to return yours :/

drussell: If the box had said "Lifetime traffic (with ads)" for instance, that wouldn't have been deceptive. I'm not the only one who has been surprised by the presence of ads on a GPS. I understand the economics. It might even be a good value. But it's ridiculously bad marketing to surprise people like this.I may even decide to keep the unit. The ads aren't that bad, and the price is quite good for what you get. But I like being treated with honesty.

From google search this site has some additional information to be considered about this product. http://ubervita.pissedconsumer.com/ubervita-w700-a-bogus-fat-burner-supplement-posted-1-700-fake-reviews-on-amazon-without-any-consequences-20140618499046.html

I think Consumer Reports review quality is getting worse. Too many products, they don't test like they used to, and their politics seem to affect a lot of their listings. I still subscribe and use their research, but find I need to use it as only one source. Watch their ratings vs. user ratings on various sites, and you will find lots of divergence.

I just check and see if they have other reviews, especially different types of products, my reviews are really random, lots of different products and categories. So find the review you find most relevant then check their other reviews and if they seem legitimate, then your probably safe. In the case of this product, I found several 5 star reviews very legitimate, I just ordered and will definitely give a review.

Is that a real question? :) Seriously, this is an almost too good to be true deal. haven't done the analysis but it's definitely not instant. We've used this brand before and it's same quality.

I thought the exact same thing - such reviews are a destroyer of the forum's credibility. Send me one and I'll give an honest review - oh, except I don't have to pay $80. Well THAT is the part that makes me honest!

They are doing the same campaign in Jan and feb 2014. All the five star reviews are from people that reviewed another supplement (some times 4 or 5) on the same day, with the same five-star results, sometimes even reporting conflicting amounts of weight loss. Usually for another Naturabest product - coffee bean extract. Clearly bogus reviews.

I agree. I was just going through all the reviews and the majority got it for free or were not Verified Purchases. With that in mind, I am now skeptical of all of their products. Companies should realize that this whole paid review process can backfire.

I've been wondering the same thing especially after reading a story today about a guy who made 28K by selling his reviews.http://finance.yahoo.com/news/best-book-reviews-money-buy-131408538.htmlI've been on this for 4 weeks now and haven't noticed anything but I'll give it 4 more weeks as one review suggested. If it's not effective I suspect all of these reviews are bogus

I was very nearly sucked in by this post. I went to shopsunshine, and they have very good prices. Then I checked them out at the Better Business Bureau. They have an unsatisfactory rating and many complaints. Check them out on the BBB before buying!

I wonder that too, looks like many of the reviews could be fake or people from the company. They only have 1 review and it happens to be this product....

I have no answer for this, but took a look at the products that a lot of the 5 star reviewers reviewed. It appears as if a lot of them reviewed the same supplements, books, wire hangers, and LED lights. Smells like paid reviewers to me. The likelihood that all of those people happened to purchase and love all of the same products is almost impossible.
