On Fake Reviews...

 

 

 

The issue with Ratings: ©M7C 2026

 

There are people giving fake low ratings and fake book reviews on websites like Amazon, which serves to stop sales of people's products, books or music.  This is most likely an attack on Amazon itself by competition or other companies or for political reasons, and not reflective of the authors or products being sold there.   If you see a fake low ratings (1 or 2 stars with or without a false review) ignore it or report it to Amazon.  Mahalo. © MC. 2026. https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/policy-news-views/amazons-latest-actions-against-fake-review-brokers

One woman said she “didn’t like Amazon authors making money on Amazon” because “they are not real authors, they are just self-published authors…”  Many famous Authors self-publish now.  They needn’t go through the process of finding an agent or publisher, and can sell it themselves directly to their audience.  Traditional Publishers also don’t pay enough unless one is a best-selling or popular author.  In that case I would be publishing one or two books a year instead of per week or month.  My first book was through a traditional publisher, & stolen, etc.  I self-publish because I don’t trust people with my books.  A friend was going to make an audio book based on one novel I wrote, but was arrested for doing so once the NSA discovered it (I am classified top secret by CIA/USA Govt., and they monitor what I do).  If you are self-published or traditionally published, you are an Author. 

There is nothing wrong with my products.  People are angry at Amazon Founder, Jeff Bezos’s support of the President of USA, and any other Billionaire connected to him.   So they take it out on Amazon Authors to punish him by stopping sales of products sold by Amazon.   They attack the bottom feeders because they know proceeds go to the top eventually.  If I don’t sell any more books for 2026, I won’t need to pay taxes on them in 2027 as the amount is below the minimum for royalty taxes ($399+ USD).  I recently noticed some idiot gave a 2 star rating without an intelligent review on a number of books sold after March 2026, so books sales for April was 7 and May was 2 (as of today, May 13, 2026).  If people are not intelligent, don’t buy books you don’t comprehend.   Mahalo.  ©M7C 2026.
