Scam reviews

Scam reviews. They charge business $ to remove negative ratings and give more better ones for $. Best to stick to bbb , trustpilot or sellerratings, were business can't take off negative reviews.

Hi there, we appreciate the opportunity to address this. To allow for full transparency, we don't prevent reviewers from leaving negative feedback. Sitejabber doesn’t spotlight negative reviews over positive ones either. We don’t in any way charge businesses to take down reviews. Removal of negative reviews can only be done if the reviewer violates our Terms of Service – see https://www.sitejabber.com/faq#fake

Improper Service & Protective support of Facebook

This is to request Site Jabber to assist in solving the lethargic response of Facebook to a Recent Hacking done by an imposter James Paul. This Person has Stolen my identity, on my the site of Nissim Moses Facebook.com to that of James Paul- (From Puerta Rico with an address in New York.) also in addition he has changed my password on Facebook and on every article posted on my Facebook under my name of Nissim Moses Changed it to James Paul. I tried very hard to retire control of my site but till today The Facebook Team has been non co-operative. Even changing my Password which has been change during the Hacking Process is not possible. This implies that Facebook does not check the validity of Password Changes by checking thoroughly the identity of the person requesting the Change. Further Facebook Request a person to select out of some 100 plus forms the correct form and describe to them the problem in less than 500 words the whole complex problem. After some-how making the effort and sending them a request, we have still not received any response or solution to the problem. Please Help. Nissim Moses

Hi Nissim, we can’t imagine how frustrating this situation may be. Based on the information you shared, we unfortunately wouldn’t be the appropriate contact to help, as Sitejabber is a review platform that allows businesses to manage reviews as well as a site that allows people to review products, companies, and services. We kindly ask that you please leave a review for Facebook for further assistance, as this has no affiliation with Sitejabber. Thank you.

sitejabber should be held accountable for FAKE REVIEWS

For months I tried to warn others about a scam company called finvestings.com who are owned by Sanako Service Ltd who are registered in The Marshall Islands. I am assuming Trust Pilot looked into the company and found that they are a scam company but sitejabber did nothing but allowing fake positive reviews. Totally disgusting

You can learn more about the process at https://www.sitejabber.com/faq#fake

Scammers

They emailed me to sign up for their service, giving me a link to reviews they have for my business. Upon looking I found 3 fake 1 star reviews for my business in their site. A horrible attempt at manipulating emotions negatively to get sales.

I'm also not interested in reaching out to scammers to get this cleared up with money, they are obviously not real.

Hey there, looks like you left your review on our company’s Trustpilot listing by accident. Sitejabber.com is a reviews website where buyers like you can leave feedback on businesses and their products, and don’t have anything to do with investments, profits, or anything of the sort. We ask that you please move your review to the correct business. Thank you.

liers and or scammers

They often time lies and do not let me get bakc into my google account and then proceed to presumably assign fake accounts with 1 or 2 reviews to leave a high rating on this site with very little evidence proving such "high quality" and often times have seemingly false reviews and rather...bias, as well as having bad customer support.

False star counts across most reviews, don't trust

Having looked at sitejabber reviews for a company, 50% of the 5 star reviews were actually people complaining about the end company,, there were over 2,000 reviews for this company. Therefore sitejabber is completely fake, they associate a completely different star count then what the reviewer has stated

Hey Michael, we appreciate the opportunity to address this concern. The overall rating of any business is a weighted average, with 50% coming from the average rating of all reviews, 25% coming from an average of all reviews written in the last 12 months, and 25% coming from an average of all reviews written in the last month. Should the 12-month or 1-month weighting periods be without reviews, that period is assigned an “average” rating (e.g., 3 stars). We hope this information helps.

Horrible website

Can't just post reviews to help people when you want to post you're forced into signing up...wouldn't be so bad if I was forced to upload a receipt for proof of purchase fore their algorithm would probably delete the review. Total BS site.

Hey Matthew, we’re sorry for the frustration signing up must’ve caused. We do this to reduce the amount of spam, bots, or falsified reviews left for businesses. Proof of purchase is sometimes requested to verify that a review is left by a real customer. Hope this helps.

Don’t trust sitejabber

I’ve just found a review supposedly made by me on sitejabber of a really bad online clothing. The review praises the company. I didn’t write the review but it comes from my profile!!! I also sent a review about 3 weeks ago to sitejabber on a fragrance company (fragrance direct). I wrote a very good review, but sitejabber hasn’t published it. The other reviews on sitejabber are mostly bad for fragrance direct.

Another website weaponising reviews at the expense of small businesses.

SiteJabber is another website weaponising reviews at the expense of small businesses. Their business model is simple, create a space for posting anonymous reviews which are often of defamatory nature and then approach businesses to claim their front storefront and make them pay subscriptions for attempting to salvage their online reputation.

Nothing new.

Site Jabber do not aid scammers

Site Jabber is a great platform to share your reviews with others. The only problem I have is that fake reviews claiming that companies are great are allowed up on the site without having to prove that they are genuine customers. When those fake reviews go up they allow Finvesting to scam other people which is WRONG. Critical reviews are scrutinised My opinion also goes for Trust Pilot.

These guys are blackmailers

I wish I could give -5 starts or 0 stars. These guys are blackmailers. There is no way of handling fake bad reviews on SiteJabber. They will force and blackmail you to buy their premium plans to cope with bad reviews. Even they won't let you take your business listing of the SiteJabber instead they will blackmail you to buy their paid plans.

Hi Eva, review authenticity is of paramount interest to us, and we have multiple layers in place to avoid any unauthentic reviews. Sometimes such reviews may still come through but they are thoroughly investigated and resolved. Sitejabber combats fake reviews in a multitude of ways, including using complex algorithms to track the ever-evolving patterns of fake reviews, and deploying a moderation team that spot-checks reviews. While we highlight some awesome features on our paid plans, we do not blackmail anyone to do anything. You can always use Sitejabber at no cost. In the spirit of full transparency, business listings are made available so anyone can research any business.
