Are reviews in my stores getting my Google merchant center account suspended?

I have a few stores with Sellvia products and I can't catch a break with Google, it doesn't matter which site I add to GMC it gets suspended, reason "misrepresentation".
I've pulled my hair out trying to fix things with no luck, I've changed things, tweaked things and removed things with no joy, of course there are now allot of sites on the net all the same with all the same products and descriptions and also allot of sites with the exact same reviews, would I be right in assuming this could be the problem?

Hello @Craig Sutcliffe I am facing the same issue but I assumed that it has to do something with the category feed mapping.. wrost thing is that google does not give us a clear explanation and from what ive learned it could be anything so I hope you can fix it and if you do please let me know how

Yes, the issue could very well be due to duplicate product descriptions, reviews, and content across multiple sites. Google flags such instances as "misrepresentation" because it appears like you're copying content from other stores, which can lead to suspensions in Google Merchant Center. To resolve this, try making your product descriptions, images, and reviews unique to your store. If you're looking to improve your store's reputation, you could also purchase Google reviews to help build credibility and ensure they reflect genuine customer experiences. This can help you avoid being flagged for duplicate content.
