Same with me. Amazon rejected my review that was similar to yours, so I blogged about it instead: https://honeypot.net/post/amazon-seller-tried-to-bribe-me/

If it happens again, I'll go straight to blogging without bothering to report it to Amazon. I may not have that many readers, but it's more than the zero that I'd have through a rejected Amazon review.

I know I'm not adding anything new but I just wanted to chime in and say I've had the exact same experience as another data point for how widespread it seems to be.

I’ve had this experience probably 20+ times over the last few years with Amazon. Stars on Amazon cannot be trusted. Even products on Amazon from verified sellers can’t be trusted to not be fake. My general policy is don’t buy anything from Amazon for which I have any quality expectations.
