How Do Amazon Link Buyer Accounts?
Hi Guys,
I sell on eBay.co.uk (Stealth accounts) and dropship from Amazon.co.uk. I've been doing it for a couple years and have never had a problem, however recently my gift card supplier gave me a 'bad' gift card, resulting in one of my Amazon accounts being closed for being 'linked to an account that violated their terms and conditions'.
In itself, this isn't a massive issue, but despite my Amazon accounts being separated by different user accounts and VPNs, some Amazon accounts are also being linked and closed.
The accounts all have different IPs and different user accounts with Firefox Portable, so don't link cookies either, so the only thing I can think of that may be linking them is ordering the same items to the same address with the same credit card (As if an account is closed, we'll re-order the active orders that were on that account on a new account).
I have quite a few other Amazon accounts that haven't been linked, which also use the same credit card and billing address to process orders, but don't order the same items to the same addresses from closed accounts. These accounts have a pretty large amount of gift credit on them, so I'm a little bit worried about them getting linked as well.
Do you guys reckon my same address & same item linking hypothesis is correct, or can you think of any other way that they're being linked?
Thanks
