Purchasing parts

Most pay for fake reviews, it's easier than to make people leave one.

I think some fake reviewers may use referral links to get some money by referring people to products with a link or custom referral code to buy a product. Fake reviewers may hype up a cheap product, and hope people use the referral link to buy it.

It's usually how it works, most will use a shorten paid link that will run you into an ad site first.

I feel some fake product reviewer can trick people into thinking a computer part is faster by secretly over clocking a CPU or using gameplay footage from a more powerful PC to make it look like a PC part is faster than it is in reality.

True, most don't seem to use live footage and only pre captured stuff to better show things.

I wonder if some fake tech product reviewers use gameplay and software footage from other real reviewers because capturing video footage is somewhat time consuming.

Maybe, and with AI most could have something just make up gameplay to make it look good.
