Is this ethical? What purpose could this serve besides tricking inattentive readers into thinking these are real?

They are labeled "fake" and there's a pretty obvious call to action to replace them with human testimonials when we have them. It certainly seems better to call them out as not real than have them try to pass as real. What they're trying to convey though is valid and hopefully helpful to the reader. It's a good question though and I'd certainly be willing to learn from it if there's an obvious violation.
