A new storm has emerged. Some sellers said that since July, their company's stores have experienced N rounds of collective nightmares. During the Black Friday and Cyber ​​Monday periods, the accounts that had previously survived were ruthlessly blocked.

According to the timeline provided by the seller, in July, after experiencing the Amazon account scanning earthquake, the seller's company quickly untied the chaotic relationship of the store brands "A contains B, and B contains C".

In the aftershock of the account scanning incident in August, the unbound stores survived smoothly and successfully survived the account scanning storm. At the same time, last month, Amazon broke out a cross-site account scanning incident, and the sellers’ accounts were not affected.

However, just recently, during the Black Friday online promotion, Amazon's scanning number suddenly upgraded, and the US account that the seller had previously associated with was blocked for fake orders, and the three European stores that the brand had associated with were also implicated.

Not only that, the seller said that one of the blocked European accounts and his own US account had shared the same registration information, so even if the US account had always behaved properly, it was useless. US account, dead!

To sum up: the US store was shut down due to fake orders → the same brand association between the European and US stores was shut down → the US small account with the same set of information in the European store was shut down

Can't escape even if you unbind?! Such an extremely intense joint punishment model really makes many sellers tremble.

We also have an integrated account, and we are very panicked now...

You are not the only victim. Now, as long as you register with the same set of information, no matter which site it is, as long as it involves fake orders and ranking manipulation, all of you will be held responsible.

Now Amazon is settling accounts, and I don’t know when they will give you a package.

Brands are jointly responsible + European and American companies are jointly responsible. Previously, the untied stores only posted links that were related to them. Now, no matter what, they will just close the stores first.

Is collective punishment so serious now? It is scary. We were just preparing to do a "you are in me, I am in you" operation, but it seems we have to cancel the plan.
