10 + spam reviews on my book!

Hi, does anyone know how to get rid of spam reviews? I've gotten more than 10 spam reviews - with the persons having a conversation using reviews. They put 1 star, then they chat to each other. It wouldn't bother me so much if there were only 1 or 2, but every day now there's one added. I've flagged them 2 weeks ago, and nothing's happened. It's affecting my overall rating for my book, and i wish i could get them removed. Please help.

Ouch! I wish I could tell you there was a way to remove them, but short of getting someone at BN to do it for you, I'm not sure there is... :smileysad:

 

It would be nice if they had, like they have on Amazon, a way to open a discussion below the book. Because I think thats why they're using your books page. Easy convenience to find their personal forum/chat room.

 

I wish you luck in getting a hold of someone who can do something for you!

Okay, these spam reviews are getting weirder.  I've had a few removed (from 20 down to 15) but now ALL my reviews are being consolidated onto a single page.  Click on the reviews for book 3, and you get the same reviews as for books 1 and 2. In other words, ALL book reviews for ANY of my books are all on a single page.

 

But you STILL can't get all of my books on a single page if you search with my name. You get the first book and nothing else.

I don't understand why b&n aren't investigating? They are obviously false reviews - they are 'chatting' - why aren't they removed? I tried emailing b&n, and I haven't heard anything for weeks. It's frustrating, when 1 star reviews appear on my book, when you shouldn't be even allowed to post them. :smileysad: does anyone know how to deal with this?
