Does Amazon still suspend or review new accounts to verify?

[user3657]

So I'm just asking a simple question...I've never done stealth and recently a competitor is creating a bunch of stealth accounts and dropping the price on this asin. I'm pretty sure it's the same guy and he's probably selling ⊗⊗⊗⊗. He's probably sold 20 in one day. I'm not interested in doing a test buy or wasting my time but I'm just wondering at some point will Amazon flag his account to verify information? These are $150 x20 on a new account in one day. That's what I'm hoping anyway. I know he's selling ⊗⊗⊗⊗ and shipping from china. One of the accounts got a negative about this.

There is no way of knowing exactly when AZ may take action.

what category of sales?

Nothing on amazon is ever simple...

We never know what amazon will do to their accounts.
If they are selling ⊗⊗⊗⊗, most likely they'll get nailed sooner than later, it won't last.


In my case I'd focus on me and figure out a strategy to counter what's happening to your asin.

I see - and yes, unless you commit to doing test buys and spending time and effort on affecting that account...you can never say with AZ when they decide to take action
