## Dataset Card for ViSpamReviews

### 1. Dataset Summary

**ViSpamReviews** is a Vietnamese e‑commerce review dataset for spam detection, with both:

* **Binary task**: `Label` ∈ {0 = non‑spam, 1 = spam}.
* **Multi‑class task**: `SpamLabel` ∈ {0 = NO-SPAM, 1 = SPAM-1 (fake review), 2 = SPAM-2 (brand‑only), 3 = SPAM-3 (irrelevant)}.

It collects reviews from major Vietnamese online shopping platforms, annotated via a strict procedure to identify deceptive or irrelevant content.
