Amazon have been deleting some accounts that use gift cards. Already 4 people reported this now. Its a worrying development.

Did you use a gift card?

If you sold the same items + same UPC + an address near your previous suspended account and last if you Are selling phakes then they can delete your account. Selling different items and I believe 100% different are much better.

Wow that is crazy. It's like what if someone down the street that so happens to do exactly what you were doing and their account gets deleted?

hangingonbyathread · #7 11-14-2013

Different items and not phakes. no media items.Account was in a 20 mile radius of another account that was up for 2 years. So if I had 2 accounts say 3 blocks away selling different items would it be taken down?seems strange. I guess no one can sell in those areas

Wonder if I will get my money for my items.

I have had an account deleted but still got my money after 90 days...but my account was deleted because i tried refunding too many people within short period of time for items not recieved

I would say its 50/50. The transfer definitely went out before it was deleted. Question is will they reverse it. I would watch the bank acct and if the funds show up pounce on it as quick as possible.

Don't confuse deleted with suspended.

suspended means you can still login but cannot sell and you often will get your money after 90 days.

Deleted means you cannot log in to your account as the username/password is not recognised although they are correct to your account. Money has gone and you will NOT get it back at all. Deleted accounts happen as Amz detect you own a previous suspended account and/or selling ⊗⊗⊗⊗.

There are many posts on this forum from veteran sellers confirming this

Agreed. Need to look past the CC for other possible linking.

Roberto you need to stop going round telling everyone the sky is falling. Until there is more info can you stop popping up in every thread saying it's because amazon are deleting accounts with gift cards. I thought you said you were "going to stop giving advice". That really would be the best option.

For a start if your account is deleted amazon do not tell you what the reason was. Anyone with a deleted account is normally at best making an educated guess. The 4 people you talk of could have made anyone of the numerous mistakes that get people linked. But you are on a one man mission to make them believe it's the giftcard. Until more experienced users start reporting problems (which they haven't) just wait and see.

Roberto,

Are you sure that your account was deleted? or just suspended?

I agree with everything above but at the same time its possible he has picked up on something so I'm going to err on the side of caution and going to purposely make a new AZ stealth in Jan after the busy period (now is the wrong time to make a stealth) with a 3V and let peeps know my findings.

Then your account has been deleted not suspended. It means whatever money was in there you wont get it even after 90 days.

They deleted the account as they know you have a previously suspended account (most common reason) and have somehow linked you.

Look like Roberto already got paid

Have had a few deleted accounts - never got my money from those. Could not log in, could not do anything.

Yes i got paid, and i guess it depends why they deleted. They deleted mine probably thinking I am doing too many refunds so something is wrong with account and set off red flag so they deleted to stop me refunding people probably suspecting fraud or that someone took over my account.

I mean I was doing like 10-30 refunds a day suddenly and out of character!

No, they don't do this for that reason. Rorbeto
