Is it permissible to post reviews for products transferred from another, more popular online store, while maintaining the same names and ratings of the original buyers, for identical products in both stores?

If the نقل التقييمات (transferring of reviews) is limited to defining the product, then it is permissible as a نقل (transferring) of the شهادة (testimony) of the reviewers. However, if the benefit of this نقل (transferring) extends to evaluating the entire store and showing the large number of its customers, then it is تدليس (deception) and تَشَبُّعٌ بما لم يُعْطَ (appearing to be full with what one has not been given).
