An ecommerce can depend on its reputation to sell more. A potential customer will prefer to buy from a five-star site with good reviews over a three-star site. But like everything on the Internet, nothing is that simple. Facebook shut down 16,000 groups exchanging positive comments and ratings for money, following a wake-up call from the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA).
Facebook had committed to the CMA some time ago to keep these types of groups in control; However, the authority found it necessary to make a new call for attention after finding an active market on the social network and on Instagram, the portal reported The Guardian.

For its part, the social network announced that it will take measures to ensure that these groups are not easily found, it will make it more difficult for people to join and, for now, it will not block its creators from the platform; however, it will create a warning system, depending on the number of violations they will not be allowed to use their account again. In addition, he promised to work on identification technology to eliminate them early.
In the notes on this problem, only groups in Europe are mentioned; However, with the e-commerce boom around the world, it would not be a surprise to find that this type of business has expanded to our region.
