Online retail giant Amazon said
Tuesday that has won its first civil case in Italy against fake
reviews, after a Milan court upheld its suit against a site that
attempted to facilitate the publication of 5-star ratings on
Amazon.co.uk.
It said the court had ordered the closure of the Realreviews.it
site and banned its operator from carrying out similar
activities in the future.
The court ruled that the site owner had breached competition
laws, thereby damaging Amazon and its customers.
