The Review Fraud -It's not uncommon these days to hear news about companies leaving bad reviews on competitor's pages or buying reviews to inflate their own overall ratings. To curb the trust issues that consumers have due to such practices, the Bob Platform will be using Blockchain technology to tie down reviews of both sides - consumer and contractor - with the actual financial transaction. So, the platform will only present real and unadulterated reviews. This will help foster transparency and trust in the platform
I strongly agree with your statement about helping to foster transparency and trust in the platform. In addition to this, both the contractors and consumer have the ways to evaluate everything that they have agreed upon. No more hidden fees, additional extra expense on the part of consumers which give bad feedback to the contractors. About review fraud, it is common nowadays, they can even buy reviews or hire someone to give a negative review to their competitors.
