February 15, 2025 at 12:29 pmHi this is my first post in this sub. I joined an internship a month ago and it was going pretty smoothly. One of the tasks we had to do was to write a review of one of the organisations product. They asked us to send the link of the product to family and friends and encourage them to write reviews as well. At first I thought it was fine, but recently a person from it contacted me and said I had to get a min of 5 reviews from ppl I know to secure the internship, seems like I misread one of the parts of the instruction. While this isn’t fake reviews as the instructions explicitly said not to give fake reviews, I still find this extremely unethical and disappointing as an intern is being judged by the number of reviews he can bring. While I understand if they just said to encourage our social circle to view and review it, I find it unethical to demand a specific number of reviews to even secure the internship. When I read the TOS of amazon, it states coordinated reviews by organisations is not allowed as it can lead to conflict of interest for the reviewer, leading to biased and unnatural reviews of a product. Im having half a mind to write an email to amazon on this and send relevant screenshots. But Im not sure if the organisation can sue me for any reasons. Like I have no idea how suing actually works in real life ๐ญ. So is there a possibility I might face something or shld I just report it to amazon? -
