Trying one more time.. - How exactly did this fraud continue to perpetuate itself?

Burned over 2 years ago by a company I still check up on it's reviews on this website.. the one that was supposed to keep a good realistic view of good company's vs. bad

Yet, it's my belief that the company in question that I loathe/hate continues to go out of it's way to make fake/false posts on itself to make itself look better..

The company in question
http://www.resellerratings.com/seller1660-p5-s1-d1.html

(I don't normally post here so if this is the wrong forum please move)

This seller last I check last year had hit a 5 or maybe a 2 now they have what's looked like faked a 9.0? score.. wtf? (most of the comments are generic and are first time signups)

There ebay score still shows that there ripping off a good 10% of there customers if not more (yah never know, maybe half there ebay sales are to themselves)
http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA...d=-1&de=off

They have 1100 reviews total over the last 6 months a 1000 of those reviews have been added almost daily.. (or three times daily) how can this not be suspicious?

I'm just wondering if anyone on this site can or will put a stop to this fraud.. and yes I'm still angry two years later.. angry more perhaps at ebay and inability to stop defrauding company's

ResellerRatings maintains a series of automated anti-fraud detection tools and manual checks on reviews submitted to our site, and we do investigate and request evidence of purchase documention either randomly or upon a valid suspect report, to ensure that the reviews displayed here are from real customers. You can read more about it here:
http://www.resellerratings.com/openletter.pl

The reviews on your reported store will be will be analyzed accordingly and we will diligently continue to do so and take any action as may be appropriate. [Note that we've conducted more than one investigation into this store's reviews, with varying results].

As noted in your other post, if you want to report a matter to ResellerRatings' Staff, please use our contact form for a timelier response. I won't comment on eBay feedback [ResellerRatings has no affiliation or connection with eBay].

*To address your review-volume comment, it is true they get a large volume of reviews, because if you look at their title, you can see there are at least 5 other storefronts affiliated with Consumer Depot [that we know of] so reviews on all those stores are coming in to that store's listing.

As always, the best way to ensure you're dealing with a good merchant is to read several pages of reviews, along with the scores, to get a better bigger-picture.

I think Resellers Ratings does a good job or at least tries best anyone can with the ease of falsifying things these days.

I will tell you who doesn't give a s--t is Pricewatch. I have caught them changing reviews and ratings so much it isn't funny. The biggest cover up is for Oneclick PC-Infinity Systems and PC On-time. I saved screen shots for a while and it is horrible how crooked Pricewatch is. They deleated many of my posts on their forum and have banned my ip address just for being truthfull.
