First and foremost,let me tell you that I do not know what,if any,investigative inquiries Amazon performs as it relates to the name(s) of individual(s) behind a business entity. However, I can tell you that you are correct,anyone can easily obtain that data by simply visiting the SOS website of any given state.All information regarding the structure of said listed entity is public information.
There is a legal way to keep your identity secret.You can hire a nominee.That person (for a fee) usually can be your agent for service as well.That person (usually an attorney) will list their name, ss# and contact info for all legal matters (business structuring)and then set up a S.corp or C.corp with your LLc as the the major shareholder(controller).I would suggest you speak with an Corporate Atty and/or CPA for your specific needs.I would also Incorporate in either Wyoming or Delaware.These services cost a little bit,but can be worth the $. A simple Google search can point you in the right direction.Good Luck.......
