We were just recently tipped off to this Facebook post by an author who was bullied on Amazon to a degree that we haven’t yet seen. Down-rating a book to “punish” an author, calling the author a b**** or other derogatory names, or even making efforts to destroy their career are bad enough, but this is just unacceptable (we’ve blacked out certain parts to protect author identity):
Reviews such as these need to be flagged and reported to Amazon right away. This kind of author bullying should never be tolerated.
