35 Times Customers Tried To Destroy A Business’s Reputation With Shameless Lies But Were Exposed Right Away
On paper, online reviews are a great way to do your due diligence before laying down some hard-earned cash. Unfortunately, it does leave you at the mercy of random internet people, who can range from well-informed and helpful to enteral made up.
The ‘Quit Your BS’ internet group gathers all the times people have publicly lied and then gotten caught in the act. Most prominent are the posts about customers leaving reviews so fake that the business owners themselves had to debunk them. So be sure to upvote the most satisfying call-outs as you scroll and comment your own stories below.

That's not a very professional response from the owner. They def should have called her out if all that's true, but it would be more satisfying if they'd done it in a mature way with correct grammar, capitalization, and less personal attacks (who cares if she looks 30 years older than she is? Irrelevant to her review).

In our newly social media society, it’s crazy how anyone can just go on and tell lies about you, in any scenario
The unfortunate truth is that the internet allows for pure anonymity, so it’s not hard to lash out vindictively against a business that you think slighted you in some way or maybe just mess with someone’s day. A more sinister phenomenon, depending on how you look at it, is the rise in bought, fake reviews. Amazon is the prime location for these sorts of operations, where anyone can unleash an army of bots or poorly paid users to give their products rave reviews. Even worse, a nefarious business owner can, instead, use these services to give competitors bad reviews.
The result of all this manipulation is that many customers simply don’t know whether they can trust a review or not. This basically has the effect of removing any and all trust in general. This has become such an issue that certain regulatory bodies are actually looking into ways to hold companies accountable. The UK Competition and Markets Authority is investigating Amazon and Google for not doing enough to combat fake reviews.

She could be referring to other children’s parental supervision.
Mason Kronol 2 years ago
I know people who take better care of their pets than people do children apparently. Pretty sure our cats got better health care than some people's kids. When we did smoke we wouldn't smoke inside because I didn't think it was fair to our cats. Some guests were annoyed by this. Non smoking friends appreciated it. I'm just waiting for the day I can call the cops on people smoking in cars with children. My dad smoked in the car with me. I hated it and the way it made me smell. But I got addicted to nicotine because of it and started smoking at 16.

My son’s first job was at one of these places, next door is a pizzeria that also serves alcohol, he told me you would not be surprised how these parents would literally drop the kids off there and go next door to drink, some would even come in there intoxicated , thinking it’s another form of daycare
Mason Kronol 2 years ago
In the 90's I worked at a restaurant that was adjacent to Chuck e Cheese. Luckily I mainly worked evenings, we didn't open until late afternoon and were closed Sundays. Staff from another restaurant in the same strip that served alcohol always talked about the people that drank while their kids were playing and the workers who came looking for the parents!

As a consumer, if you plan to put down serious money for a product, you would want to at least read through a handful of user reviews beforehand. But now that you know that so many are faked, what can you do to be sure? While it's impossible to know one hundred percent, there are a few telltale signs to look out for. You can use services like Fakespot or Reviewmeta to analyze if something is real or not. There are also browser extensions like Camelizer that can rate the reliability of a text.

Fake Review Before The Restaurant Even Opens

"I found a hair and a fingernail in my food, please make me another one for free!" This happened at a place I worked. Yes, there was a hair in the sandwich that was obviously from a worker. But the 12 year old boy finished the entire foot long, demanded another and they wanted all their food and drinks comped. Nope. You get the 2 sandwiches free, GTFO and don't come back. Had they not been so eager to eat the food with the hair, complained we didn't have French fries and been generally rude people I would have comped everything and offered a gift certificate.

Generally, just reading through the review can give you some good indicators. Vague descriptions, a multitude of grammatical errors, and generally short texts all point towards a review being created by a bot or a service provider. Reviews with images of the product are more likely to be real, and you can reverse image search the picture to see if it’s just been taken from elsewhere.

I owned a music electronics equipment repair shop. I had one crazy person bring in a 30 year old keyboard which I warned her there were no parts available. I also had a sign at the front cautioning customers that working on vintage electronics is unpredictable as old parts can crumble, break, and fail just by handling them for inspection. Then after the unit ended up not repairable with parts no longer available, I did not even charge her the basic bench charge for my diagnostic labor. She had a fit and demanded that I am responsible for replacing her keyboard. The final straw was that she demanded a receipt. I did not charge her anything! She called me back a month later demanding again that I replace her keyboard. She threatened a bad Google review. I told her my reply would explain to the world how crazy she is.

This is why I am so skeptical when reading reviews on anything. We stayed at a hotel mid pandemic that had terrible reviews but it was affiliated with Hilton and in the perfect location so I took a chance. It was one of the cleanest hotels I've ever been in and the staff was amazing. Hotels.com messed up our booking and the hotel staff corrected it and only charged us half of what they could have to upgrade to what we needed and originally booked. I will never use a discount travel site again. I go straight through the hotel, airline, rental car etc. also buy travel insurance. We were lucky 80% of the time but that 20% of not working out was a big hassle and cost a lot.

Another suggestion is to explore reviews outside of Amazon. Professional reviews can be helpful, though they often don’t use the item long enough to determine if it's suitable for long-term use. Similarly, restaurant reviews can be difficult since tastes, literally, differ. If it's a more mundane item, might be hard to find an expert review, since, say, garden hoses and roof shingles might not have a dedicated community assessing them.

I've worked in restaurants for years and I wish people would realize that not only is it inconsiderate, but it's dangerous to let your kid run around a restaurant. I will hurt your kid. That's not a threat. I have a solid 150lbs on your kid and I'm carrying heavy trays with hot food. If that falls on them they can get seriously hurt. So please tell your children not to do things like latch onto my leg like a tweeked out koala bear!

Seen lots of kids cop stray elbows or hip checks in restaurants and stores because they have no concept of space and safety. They just go running behind someone who turns to do something and BAM! Elbow to the face, kid on the floor screaming. The fun part is watching the parents reactions, since they range from righteous anger ("you hurt my baby!") to weary exasperation ("I told you to stop running round like an idiot or you'd hurt yourself").

The staff at the nail salon is not paid nannies. YOU are in charge of YOUR child; if he or she can't keep relatively still and quiet, he or she should not be there. That is a WORK PLACE, not a play-ground. Same goes for restaurants and similar places; YOU are in charge of YOUR children. If they can't behave in public, that's on YOU. (I omit children with autism, ADHD, and similar legitimate diagnoses here, of course. This is just about children who have never been taught regular maners by their parents, who expects others to do it for them.)

I've "accidently" tripped unsupervised brats in a restaurant. More than once. One feral monkey was making sand art with salt, which honestly didn't bother me, but when it was taken away from him he started having a screaming fit and started running all over. He tripped and his mother (who had been completely ignoring him, it was the waitress that took the salt away) started yelling at me for not watching out. As sweetly as I could I informed her that I generally don't have to "watch out" for children running in a restaurant and if she was actually acting like a parent and keeping an eye on him instead of staring at her phone, maybe her little demon seed wouldn't have tripped over my foot when he went running past my table. The waitress was ginning from ear to ear. And no the kid was not hurt.
Mary Rogers 2 years ago
You kind of have to figure that if the other customers are also "rude" that maybe the problem is really you, 😂.
The best bet would be to go to a store to try the item in person, but this only really works for a handful of options. Most restaurants don’t really let you sample random dishes for free, though you can at least enter the establishment to determine the vibe. Similarly, service providers like wedding planners and photographers might have impressive portfolios, but until they actually do their job, it can be difficult to keep track. The bottom line is that buyers really do have to be wary. Fortunately, at least some business owners do their part to ensure only fair and, more importantly, real reviews.

"Smoked meat house" we have a small restaurant not far from us that smokes meats. Better get there before 1pm because that's when they stop cooking and what they have is what they have. If you wanted pulled pork but someone got there at 11am and ordered enough for 20 people you are out of luck. Same with a local taqueria. They are open until 10pm but if they run out of beef or steak at 7pm you just can't order it. Lo siento.
Kate Jones 2 years ago
I think restaurants should have a policy that states the food you order must be able to be prepared before the closing time. So if someone walks in 5 minutes before closing, they can't order anything that takes more than 5 minutes to make. Also all orders made within a half hour to closing are to go. And I just have to say, just because they forget to lock the door doesn't mean you magically got some power to make them serve you. What are you, 5 years old? I had to unlock the front door to take out trash once because our back door lock was broken, and some guy went into the store and was refusing to leave until I rang him up. Meanwhile, the registers are closed, the lights are off... I mean, we close when it says we're closed. Sometimes we're finishing up with a customer that was at the register when the closing time came it doesn't mean you get to sneak in and keep us there longer.

If what you want to order can't be made before closing time, then you can't order that thing! Easy-peasy.

THAT is how you behave; you don't expect people to work overtime for you. Do you like to work overtime? Do you want to PAY overtime fee for what you are about to order? If not, then be on time, for gods sake!!!

I have no problems walking in two minutes before closing (sometimes you're not aware of the closing time) but I also have no problems with the place saying "Sorry we close in two minutes, the grill is turned off". I live in a no-tipping country, but if I walked in 2 minutes before closing and they *did* prepare a meal for me I'd be sure to tip because they've gone above and beyond.

My SIL that was gluten intolerant, had celiacs and went vegan suddenly turned to Adkins and Keto. She eats a lot of bread now.

Maybe don't go out to eat. Cook at home where you can control everything or pack snacks.

Owner Of A Micro-Brewery Responds To A Review, The Reviewer Doesn't Want To Quit Their Bullsh*t

Cancellation policy is always available on every business's website. It's good to have them. We put them in our confirmations too. If you didn't scroll down to the bottom of the document or haven't checked the website for information you needed, that's on you.

Because like Sad Quokka said, he's a wanker and who wants to hang out with a wanker?

If you're leaving your dog somewhere wouldn't you make sure you did the tick/flea treatment before hand? I mean that's just common sense. And when it comes to medication costs, I guess that would depend on what they're actually charging. And that's before you get to the fact it's likely a disgruntled ex-employee posting out of spite.

Good Old Fake Reviews

I don't disagree with the point the reviewer was making. There are a few apps I've tried that while free to play bombard you with ads and the only option to buy is a subscription not a one-off purchase. For a lot of apps it makes more sense to buy once than have to subscribe. Microsoft Solitaire I'm looking at you...

Just remember: we never know who's telling the truth and who's lying. It's very easy for a customer with a grudge or ulterior motives to make up nonsense stories about a company, but it's equally easy for a business owner to make up nonsense stories about the customer. You never know whether the customer was right about the company really screwing up, and the "what actually happened was..." is just a fake story from the business owner to make other people think it was the customer's fault when it actually wasn't. We weren't there, so we can't know who's telling the truth.

As a food inspection officer, I can tell you that we receive quite a lot of fictitious complaints from the public about a premises' hygiene. They usually result from ex-staff grievances or customers who wish to make a business' life hell for issues unrelated to food hygiene or quality. These people waste inspectors' time as well as upsetting and inconveniencing the business. Absolute morons.

I really feel a full name and shame is needed for these people who make the false /fake reviews slating a company.

The problem being that we often don't know which one is telling the truth.
