second suspension... what to do?
 

hello all!

I desperately need your help. I managed to get a new seller account on amazon on my 4th try after getting suspended. I took selling super slow, and just today I got a notification:

Hello from Amazon.com.

We are writing to let you know that we have blocked your selling account. Your open listings have been cancelled and you may no longer sell on our site. Any subsequent selling accounts that are opened will be closed as well.

We took this action because it has come to our attention that this account is related to an account which has been previously blocked for violations of our policies. While we do not provide detailed information on how we link related accounts, we have significant evidence that this account is related to a previously blocked account.

Your seller account will remain accessible to you. Please take steps to resolve your pending sales.

Any remaining funds are being reserved in your Amazon.com account for 90 days from the date your account was blocked. After 90 days, the funds will be disbursed minus any A-to-z Guarantee claims or charge-backs. If you have further questions about your funds please write to payments-funds@amazon.com.

I really have no idea what I did to trip off amazon... cleared cookies, flash cookies, changed names, address, new bank account, everything...

any suggestions?
I'm out of addresses and bank accounts, not sure how to reopen another one.

You have been linked to another suspended account. There is no recourse here. You need to open a new stealth account. Getting a new address and bank account is cake. I suggest a real address such as the UPS Store. Amazon looks at these details more closely than eBay does....anything that makes them suspicious will cause a closer look....bam!

You could always open an account in a friend's name/info, of course, and just add a new bank account to that.

does the new bank account info need to have matching names?

No, but ask on the ebay forum, some banks will reveal the name if Amazon comes calling, though I don't believe they ever do.

I think you need to review you stealth technique before you waste any more bank accounts/addresses.

It looks like Amazon is doing their quarterly housecleaning` since I had several shut down last week.

It seems that Amazon is now linking banned sellers with ip ranges i.e. 1st two sets of a banned sellers ip address so I recommend totally different ip plus new listing in a different category with a above average price.

how long do you have to change categories + prices before you can do your old prices and items?

Did you begin this new Amazon account with a new User Account?

Mmmm, belongs not to me, maybe because i use a real US IP.......?

Can that be?

All my accounts are up and running?! No account was blocked.

yup. did new user account.

everything was changed up.

I really can't figure out what tipped them off...
