Another scam the Chinese use is to buy a bunch of legit product like Carhartt t-shirts and have them shipped to US addresses. Now initiate returns with BOOTLEG product.
The next person to buy a Carhartt t-shirt receives a chinese bootleg, two sizes smaller than the label, and leaves a pissed off review on the legit product.
They supposedly mix inventory from different suppliers if it has the same manufacturer and manufacturer item #. So one manufacturer can supply counterfeit product and fuck it all up.
Amazon is bad.

That's exactly what they do. I've seen many products where a specific time period suddenly has tons of bad reviews when the product was fine before.
