You may have heard the news about how Yelp sued its users about fake reviews. But it still seems that 16% of the reviews on the site are still fake.

Cheating is always a bad thing to do and to those who are doing it, you should be ashamed of yourself. Though a great way to gain more viewers, bloggers and businessman should not rely on cheating because at the end, they will regret what they have done from the start.

Interesting. I actually believe that this is true. I think that there's a lot of reviews online that are fake. You have to be careful when deciphering which ones are real and which aren't. Thanks for sharing your insights on this topic with us.
