Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 10:56 pm

As the world’s largest freelance services marketplace, Fiverr is no stranger to fake reviews. In fact, any platform that allows user-generated reviews is susceptible to fake reviews.

While most platforms have systems in place to detect and remove fake reviews, some slip through the cracks. That’s why it’s important for users to know how to report a fake review on Fiverr.

Here’s what you need to know about how to report a fake review on Fiverr:

What is a fake review?
A fake review is a review that is not genuine or accurate. It can be positive or negative, but it is not an accurate representation of the reviewer’s experience.

Why do people write fake reviews?
There are many reasons why people might write fake reviews. Some people do it to boost their own ego, while others do it to try and damage the reputation of a competitor. In some cases, people are paid to write fake reviews.

PRO TIP: If you believe that a Fiverr review is fake, please report it to us immediately. Fiverr takes review fraud very seriously and we will investigate any reports that we receive. Please note that we may take action against any user that is found to be posting fake reviews, including but not limited to suspending or banning their account.

How can you tell if a review is fake?
There are a few things you can look for that might indicate a review is fake:

-The language used in the review is overly positive or negative
-The review is short and doesn’t provide any details about the experience
-The reviewer seems to have no other activity on the platform
-The review was written recently, even though the user has been active on the platform for a long time
-The reviewer has only written one review

If you come across a review that you think might be fake, you can report it to Fiverr by following these steps:

1. Go to the gig page
First, you need to go to the gig page where the review was left. You can find this page by searching for the gig on Fiverr or by clicking on the “Reviews” tab on the gig page.

2. Click on the “Report” button
Once you’re on the gig page, look for the “Report” button underneath the review. This button is only available to logged-in users, so you will need to login to your account before you can report the review.
