Seems like this is just low effort affiliate link spam. The actual "fake review" filtering is done by fakespot.com, and price tracking is done by thetracktor.com, so you are just adding an affiliate code?

We are not trying to hide the fact that we're using fakespot review data (or tracktor pricing data for that matter). We are providing the ability to search for products rather than cutting and pasting URLs between browser tabs into multiple different websites. We are trying to provide a more cohesive user experience than we have found elsewhere.
