Soliciting someone to pay for an account to remove negative public reviews comes close to blackmail, correct?

  Close, but not quite. Blackmail would be if they held the negative reviews and then released them if they refused to pay. This is more like a sleezy PR person that offers to help bury a story that they themselves are promoting.

    It's sort of like extortion.
