Amazon's sprinting decline into absurdly gamed reviews and scam copycat products really doesn't support that quote.

If they don't measure it, does it exist?

I'm not disagreeing here, but it could be that the fraud is a drop in the bucket of Amazon revenue. And just trying to get metrics on it, may cost more than what Amazon benefits from it.

I tonight bought a 3d printer hotend from the source company, because I couldn't be sure the product I order from Amazon would be genuine.

It's pretty bad when the products being sold on Amazon are labeled "Genuine assembled E3D V6 Hotend", when if Amazon gave a shit, it would only need to say "Assembled E3D V6 hotend."
