I was thinking about buying an air fryer. My search came up with cookbooks specific to that air fryer, and I was intrigued. I found a good 5-star book, but then I found that ALL the 5-star reviews were submitted the same day.

I complained, but Amazon defended the book as legitimate, and since I hadn't purchased it, they would not take any action. (to be honest, I assume frontline customer service reps don't have much experience or power)

So I purchased it, complained, got a refund and then they were able to accept my complaint (after passing the complaint higher in the food chain).

Seriously, how hard was it amazon? I guess they're starting to notice.

Take a look at air fryer cookbooks - there are books specific to most makes and models. But everything is ML copypasta all the way up and down - the title, the recipes and the reviews all seem to be generated garbage.
