My Surprising Career as an Amazon.com "Fake" Reviewer

• https://fee.org, by Anonymous

Everyone likes the convenience of online shopping, and no online store is more popular than Amazon.com. Now imagine if you could get just about anything on Amazon.com for free. How would your life change? This has been my life for the past two months after I became a professional undercover Amazon.com reviewer. In the process, I gained a lot of insight into how global markets work, why everything seems to be made in China and applied what I learned in school about game theory scenarios to my new career.

It Started with a New Computer

It all started with a new computer. My new MacBook requires a dongle to connect to just about everything, so I bought a bunch of cheap adapters on Amazon.com. Many of these adapters did not work well, so I vented my frustration in Amazon.com reviews. I also felt I should leave some positive reviews when the occasional adapter did work.
