Changing Amazon Acct Info
 

I inherited a friends Amazon seller account when I was suspended a while back.

The account of course has all his personal info attached (ssn#, address, etc.) I have since created an LLC for the business attached to the Amazon account, and I want to change all the info so he doesn't get hit with a 1099 this year.

Will inserting a new tax id, or changing the address on the account throw up a red flag for Amazon? (My name is associated with the LLC as the registered agent)

I have changed LLC info before. No problems. Just don't change anything else. Your legal identity (LLC info) is what matters

You have an account with your friend's SSN and such....really can't recommend you playing with it AT ALL.

You need to 1) learn about Amazon Ghost method

and 2) realize that legal tax implications are applicable. Operating a different tax id and SSN?

I'm not saying that you WILL be caught but if it ever comes up....man, you are going to have problems working with someone else's ID.

That being said - choice is yours.
