Default Buying from friends amazon store

Has anyone tried using stealth buyer accounts to regularly buy from a friends legit amazon store using cheap giftcards with the intention of splitting the profits? Can anyone share their experience or does anyone have a reason why I shouldn't do this?

Sorry if this has already been asked before. I tried searching everywhere for posts relating to this but couldn't find anything.

If you're real good, and I mean really good, you might just pull it off. Would I contemplate it on my seller account - not a chance.

My prediction as to what would happen...they will identify the buyer accounts as stealth and link them to the seller account. It's one of Amazons biggest hates and they police it aggressively. Get caught and it's goodbye seller account without the option to appeal.

all these associated accounts will most likely get you nailed.

If the purpose is for feedback, I wouldn't do it

Its easy to get feedback normally, you just gotta be persistent with your customers

This is purely for money making purposes. I have no need for feedback. I can get gift cards in bulk quantities and have no issues with getting my buyer accounts banned but getting the seller account banned would be pretty detrimental as I assume they would withhold the 2 weeks of funds stuck as deferred transactions.

manipulation plus gift cards on amazon are just some of the scariest things to do there.

I've been seeing more and more people get nailed even when they aren't doing anything.

Their bots are truly like squirrels on crack.
