They been doing these ads for ages, sometimes they would leave the comments open and I’d google a better competitor and advertise them in the comments.
That’s also a common strategy. Someone will ask about a product that is actually the competitor’s product, and then they’ll reply to that post with a bunch of shill accounts saying “actually Acme doodads are better. Get them on the official website because Amazon is evil”. Then a bunch of people get duped into thinking they’re reading legitimate reviews from real people.
