Invoices - how unique?

[chris100]

I'll be using invoices that passed a previous appeal to make a fresh appeal on a second stealth account.

The question is...how many changes will i have to make so they won't get picked up as potential duplicates?
This is a creative stealth invoice btw.

The bare minimum would be changing the items and my shipping address (plus dates and invoice number)

I wonder if Amazon has software that picks up invoices that are too similar?

Hmm is the invoice supplier info the same? As in the shop/distribution center?

Yes...it would be the same supplier info. I'm thinking this would be less important as multiple sellers could be using the same supplier?

Exactly - it seems you have changed the important info, that should be ok

No problem at all. If company x has an invoice. And has y amount of customers. Then the same invoice template will be uploaded by thousands of potential sellers

Just ensure all critical info is different

these sellers would have different company name and address and they dont necessarily order the same item in same quantity and have them shipped to the same address.
And the company should have assigned a u nique customer account number to each customer and each invoice would have a unique invoice number,sometimes their customer would ask them to repeat THEIR purchase order on the invoice for reference.
I doubt AMZN or Ebay will have software to cross check invoices,but they could call the vendor to confirm you are a legit customer .

Just an update on this...

2nd POA was rejected as they want more detail. Not asking to resubmit invoices so guess they are ok?
This POA was pretty detailed... more so than a previous one that passed.

One thing i did differently last time. I deleted my entire itinerary to start again afresh rather than just closing all listings with promises to update.

It took 3 attempts to get reinstated last time so i think they want something quite drastic. I'm sceptical about the POA needing even more detail or clarity.

One question....can i copy chunks of a previous POA or will this get picked up by them?

[chris100]

Thought i'd give an update.

Passed on the 4th attempt. I made the appeal shorter and more concise following advice (and NOT greater in detail as Amazon rejection emails kept requesting).

I did copy chunks of a former succesful POA i'd made.

I had deleted my inventory and still got rejected on my 3rd appeal...so this was not key.

Interestingly, on the 3rd rejection i was asked to appeal again through my seller account page (click on appeal button) rather than just reply to amazon rejection email

Great to hear you got reinstated!

Hey Chris, sent you a message. Need your opinion on something.

I am in the same boat, however in my whole chain of emails with amazon, they did not once require a POA. Just kept asking me to send invoices + auth letter from the supplier which I did.

After which I would receive the same email template saying "We received your submission but do not have enough information to reactivate your account.

Why did I receive this message?
You have not sent us sufficient information that we previously requested from you to address our concerns with your account. For privacy reasons, we do not provide details about our investigation methods."

Any thoughts on how to move foward with this? Can I still tweak the original rejected invoice or auth letter?

Edit: Forgot to mention, my invoices / letters are done by an approved seller here

if you never filled out a POA, you should provide the information again with a well written bullet point POA addressing the problems.
