> Amazon is making it far too easy for fraudsters to sell their crap, and (from what I hear) repeatedly: products removed because of counterfeit issues get re-added the next day under some other (or new) product code, or seller ID.

I stumbled upon the latest Amazon scam this past week. I was searching through my Amazon order history to find a wallet I had ordered years ago in the past. Imagine my surprise when my query for "wallet" returned an order with the wallet's name as the title, an image of a 5 pack of Lightning cables as the picture, and a 3 pack of Lightning cables when I actually clicked through.

The reviews [0] were clearly for a bunch of different items: the wallet I had purchased in the past, a laser pointer/clicker for pets, socks, etc. But the current item being sold was a set of generic Lightning cables. It amazes me that Amazon would let sellers so blatantly apply reviews from a bunch of older and wholly unrelated items to a completely new (and also unrelated) item.
