Um. I am not even sure where this is in the rules.

It is ethically wrong But i don't think its in the rules.
If you have to question yourself about if something is okay, then it probably isn't.

Give this man (Or lady?) a apple!
If I was you I'd post a screenshot of that in his thread.
People have gotten banned for doing fake vouches. Let alone it being morally wrong.

If the idiot pmed you that on hf, show that shit to a admin(not omni yet)

If it is over skype your morally wrong.
Yes it is as it is essentially a fake vouch. You should report it imo.
It is frowned upon, but I don't think staff take action on this unless in rare circumstances.

Sounds like usual marketplace procedure, sadly.
Vouch copy's are allowed, but it's more like a review copy. Confirm with him that if you accept the vouch copy you will give a 100% honest review, if he's not okay with this than I wouldn't even accept it.

There is no official set rule on this particular issue yet. Just do the right thing and don't lie.

This.

Put yourself in the customers shoes, would you want a fake vouch on a product that you're interested in? No.

Vouch copies are allowed, but by no means are you required to leave a positive review, nor should you be acting like you bought it.

A vouch copy should be strictly for you to give your honest feedback on the user's product or service.

Yeah fake vouches are against the rules and morally wrong as well.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!
Its like TRADING. Its not allowed :) LOL
