Europe and Japan also restrict shipments! My brother-in-law is still sending red flags like crazy. Is a new round of account suspension coming?

After the US site was restricted from shipping, the European and Japanese sites also began to do so.

Since yesterday afternoon (July 23), Amazon sellers have received rumors that the European site will introduce warehouse restrictions. Some sellers have also received notifications from key account managers that the European and Japanese sites will restrict shipments and recommend creating shipments as soon as possible.

By the evening, this news was verified. When many sellers created shipments, they found that the products had reached the maximum inventory allowed ! Moreover, when they started to create shipments afterwards, they would always be prompted that the system was busy.

In addition to Europe, the Japanese site has restrictions on shipping, and some sellers have directly received emails regarding shipping restrictions.

As soon as the news that Europe and Japan might restrict shipments came out, many sellers rushed to the backend to create shipments! After creating shipments, everyone exited the backend with satisfaction, but found out this morning that all shipments were cancelled!!!

However, some sellers received the news a few hours earlier than their peers and completed the shipment creation, perfectly avoiding this restriction, and it has not been cancelled until now~

The US site restricted shipments on July 13, but I didn’t expect Europe and Japan to follow suit so quickly. I can only say that the changes this year were too sudden.

In the future, the number of overseas warehouse transfers and drop shipping in Europe is expected to increase significantly . In response, many sellers said that they could only ship by themselves, and some sellers lamented that they had to return the deposit they had just received from the overseas warehouse...

In addition to the restrictions on shipments, a large number of sellers have received account suspension warning emails from my brother-in-law in the past two days.

On July 22, many sellers reported that they had received red flags from Amazon.

The email content is as follows:

After receiving the warning letter, many sellers who were conducting reviews contacted the service provider immediately and asked to suspend the reviews:

It seems that this wave of warning letters has scared many sellers...

In fact, in May of this year, a large number of sellers had just received small red flags from Amazon, warning sellers not to brush reviews or conduct reviews.

Therefore, some sellers said that there is no need to make a fuss about this kind of mass email behavior . This is a special fishing software used by Brother-in-law to catch those sellers who are guilty of brushing orders. Just ignore it!

There are also experienced sellers who have summarized the four principles of "no": don't reply, don't admit, never reply, never admit ...then stop and slowly review again.

However, regarding the warning email about my brother-in-law’s account being blocked, some sellers believe that it was not a mass message, but rather Amazon giving him another chance .

In my opinion, whether it is mass sending or giving a chance, those who fake orders must be restrained , after all, Amazon likes to settle accounts later. Recalling the 5.25 incident that year, how many accounts were banned for fake orders and fake reviews, even super-selling accounts with 1 billion sales were not spared. Therefore, after every large-scale warning, sellers need to pay attention, otherwise they may be directly banned and POA written next time.
