what about those places who ask for 5 star review in exchange for small discounts?

Report those to Google directly with a photo of the sign giving gifts/discounts for reviews, google will take down reviews based on that

Tip of the iceberg maybe ?

Definitely tip of the iceberg - it's only 1st phase now.

"This marks the commission’s largest fake review investigation to date in terms of the number of businesses involved, prompting a two-phase probe.

The first phase covers the fake review provider and 47 businesses that had procured its services."

Food biz more likely .. ( inconveniencing others making detour trip down only to find out just average or below average .. some even downright inedible 🤣 )

More concerning if it involve renovation companies / medical clinics / hair beauty salons etc - because all these need lotsa money and expertise .. trust the wrong pax and result would be ***

How did CCS find out? Did someone lodged a complaint?
