Review farming like this is generally frowned upon and if Amazon (especially) has a hint of it (and I think Goodreads are catching up as well; not sure about other sites), they wipe all reviews (even legit ones) from your books. It's why ARCs are used for reviews and not people like this.

Amazon work it out, by the way, when the same people leave reviews at different works in a similar time frame. So A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H & J all leave reviews on Book1 within 72 hrs of each other, then these same people leave reviews some time later on Book 2 within 72 hrs of each other.

It is a risk, but if you're willing to take it, reviews are the lifeblood of Amazon sales.
