Relatively speaking, Amazon is a fair and just platform where sellers can win consumers through their own efforts. However, some sellers may intentionally or unintentionally use some "tricks" to bring risks to their accounts, such as being warned, restricted or suspended. Here are a few scenarios that may result in your seller account being banned: 9. Violating Amazon’s listing rules The following situations will be considered as violations of Amazon’s listing rules: (1) Copying other sellers’ listing information, including pictures, descriptions, titles, and related information belonging to other brand sellers. (2) False information unrelated to the product, including price, promotion, manufacturer, shipping and logistics costs, etc. (3) Product information and product graphics are inaccurate. If the above situation is obvious, Amazon will review your account and take restrictive measures. Therefore, you must comply with Amazon's listing specifications and ensure consistency by filling in real product descriptions and pricing information. 10. Lack of relevant product certification Please note that some products need to be certified by a certification body before they can be sold. In addition, some products may require safety certification, such as medical devices, machinery, toys, and personal protective equipment. Amazon requires sellers to provide relevant product certifications before listing products, otherwise sellers may be warned or their accounts may be suspended. 11. Violation of Amazon policies (1) Amazon’s Product Sales Policy Sellers who sell prohibited items mentioned in Amazon policies without the necessary certification may be penalized. If you sell firearms, illegal animal products, ammunition, and related accessories that fail to meet energy efficiency standards for lighting products, your account will be banned. (2) Selling counterfeit goods Common counterfeit goods include DVDs, digital products, movies, and beauty and skin care products. If you are found selling counterfeit goods, your account will be banned by Amazon. If you are selling products registered under another brand or using another brand’s trademark, and the brand’s agent or buyer raises infringement issues, Amazon may suspend your account. Therefore, before selling on Amazon, you need to check whether your products have slogans or products from other brands. Registering multiple accounts using similar identification information may result in your account being banned. If you want to create another Amazon seller account, use different identification information and make sure that similar IP addresses are not used to access both accounts. (5) Lead buyers away from Amazon Some sellers will sell the products they display on Amazon on other platforms. Therefore, they will use Amazon as a promotional platform to guide buyers to another platform to buy. If Amazon finds out about this, you will receive a warning and your account will be reviewed.
