Company Promises Positive Yelp Reviews For a Price; Yelp Sues

Posted by samzenpus on from the give-me-a-dollar-and-I'll-say-something-nice dept.

jfruh writes Many restaurants and other small businesses live and die by Yelp reviews. Revleap operates a paid service that it says can "create a large constant flow of positive reviews that stay on top of your [Yelp] profile, and remove fake reviews." But Yelp is suing Revleap for what it says are practices that are fraudulent and in violation of Yelp's terms of service; among other things, Revleap promises users gift cards in exchange for good reviews.
