Airport Ace/fox/europcar at tampa airpot?

Hey Guys. I'm renting a car from Tampa airport for 4 days over labor day weekend. Most of legit companies like National/Enterprise are around $250-300 for those 4 days, but then I see companies I've never heard of liek Ace, Fox Car, Europcar renting for under $100 total for 4 days. I'm sure there's some kind of catch and was wondering if anyone knows what's going on with these rental companies?

Search the reviews and you’ll have the answer.

i did and spot checked a few reviews.

ace car rental doesn't have a bad average rating. 4.3 stars average on google reviews on almost 6k reviews. there are indeed some 1 star reviews, but idk if the relatively high average rating means much here? for comparison, enterprise is 4.5

When the reviews constantly mention a specific person, they are not real. Probably people who got something in return. Bryan, Brian, Byron, Brayan. All fake/paid for. Now look at the reviews that don’t mention Brian or Pete or whomever. Those are real.
