It isn't legal for them to buy positive reviews in the UK.
They might have some problems with the Advertising Regulator, but their bigger problems would be with the Competitions & Market Authority. Misleading & deceptive conduct to sell your goods is illegal in the UK (and the EU & Australia and other places).
Negative reviews would seriously open you to being sued by the people you are review bombing..
