Flippa question

I was taking a look at the Flippa listings "recently sold".

So I opened a few of those sold offers and had a look at the websites.

To be honest, a few of those websites and the price sold made me lift my eyebrows.

I even checked some of the traffic stats and found huge differences from what they claimed.

The websites claim to make a few k a month almost automatically but are sold for less than 2x the monthly revenue.

That made me questioning "How Reliable Are Flippa Listings"

Can someone manipulate his own listing to raise momentum for a site? Or could it even be that Flippa fakes sales stats to make it look like there is a good money to be made?

I guess that later isn't the case as Flippa might not need that kind of manipulation and could risk a penalty. The numbers just don't made sense as as selling a site for 3.5k which makes me 2k a month on autopilot is stupid.

We had a case here in Brazil with a Job Listing site which had about 50% fake listings to inflate their offer to attract new clients. Just so to say as you can put in your site whatever you want to make it look good.
