There is this restaurant. It's quite popular, especially for its Tandoori Chicken dish.
The restaurant owners ask their chefs to add copious amounts of masala to the dish, to make it more delectable.
Customers flock to it for that reason.

The third restaurant is now considered to be the best Tandoori Chicken place in the neighborhood. The owners are greedy people tho, they want MORE customers.
MOAAR!
So they pay off a few people to put up fake reviews on food delivery apps and increase their rating.

MOAR customers flock to the third restaurant, more Tandoori Chicken is sold than ever before.

Until, one fine day, this ratings scam gets busted. As it turns out, the second restaurant was also rigging the ratings system to get customers too. Sad.

Third restaurant slowly dies out though.
The ratings scam is too much bad publicity and the customers get a bit reluctant to buy Tandoori Chicken from this one.
BUT... The rigged system remains riggable.
Restaurants continue serving Tandoori Chicken.
Customers keep coming.
