Amazon suddenly released a video verification! A large number of sellers received a warning of store closure

Something has started to ferment in the Amazon circle in the past two days. Many sellers have received account security warnings and emails requiring video verification information!

As you can see, the email clearly states that video verification cannot be skipped. If the verification is not performed within a week as required, the store will be removed from selling products. In another case, the seller is directly given a deadline to close the store, requiring verification before the deadline or the store will be closed.

In addition, Amazon mentioned in the requirements that it is necessary to provide

The legal person's valid identity document and business license original, both of which need to be consistent with the information used when registering the store. Whether it is video verification or requiring the presentation of original documents, it was a relatively rare method in the past when Amazon verified the safety of stores. Basically, video verification was only used in the review of newly registered stores. This video verification also affected a wide range of people. We have seen many sellers in forums and our group report that they received emails asking for video verification.

I collected some of the affected sellers and found that the scope of this verification is quite confusing. There are not many common points. Some of the affected stores are self-registered, some are purchased, some have recently made fake orders, and some have not dared to play tricks for a long time. It can be said that the logic of Amazon's scanning verification this time is not the security of account information and whether there are fake orders or tricks. In fact, this wave of scanning can be linked to a previous incident, that is, Amazon blocked 13,000 stores registered by Pakistani IPs , and vaguely pointed out that some of the blocked accounts were registered by Chinese sellers.


I wrote a detailed article about the closure of the store at that time. You can click here to review it . It was probably because there was a loophole in Amazon's new investment promotion plan. The sellers and stores registered in Pakistan could take advantage of the time difference of payment to send empty packages, which made a lot of money from Amazon. For this reason, Amazon not only closed more than 10,000 stores registered with Pakistani IP addresses, but also directly suspended the store registration work of Pakistani IP addresses.
