Case 1: Registering a new account with a credit card from a previously closed account.
A seller had previously registered a personal seller account on the European site. Due to a problem with his credit card, the account was not successfully registered. However, he ignored this problem and continued to register on the North American site with company information. As a result, he was rejected by Amazon when registering.
This is an example of using a previously closed account credit card to register a new site account and being rejected. Similarly, if a seller uses the business license, payment account, and mobile phone number used by the previously blocked account to register a new account, there is a great possibility that the registration will fail. If this happens, the seller can only contact Amazon to appeal. But whether the appeal will be successful is unknown.
Case 2: Registering a second account on the same computer.
A seller previously had an account on the European site, but his store was closed due to infringement issues. He got a clean set of information and changed the network cable, but used the same computer when registering, causing his new account to be linked as soon as it was registered.
Case 3: Two sellers used the same phone number.
There are two sellers, their network cables and computers are separate, their respective registration information is also different, but the only thing is the same mobile phone number, and both stores are successfully registered. But soon after, both stores were frozen. One of the sellers filed a complaint, and Amazon replied that there was a problem with the association of their two stores, and only one store could be retained.
From this, it can be seen that once the stores are associated, Amazon will punish the sellers and may force the closure of one of the stores; it is also possible that both stores can continue to survive; but if it is associated with an account that has been blocked, then this account will definitely be closed.
Case 4: Wrong network cable port connection.
A seller used two different sets of information to register an account, and the network and computer were also operated separately. But one day the network failed, and the network administrator repaired the network cable. When connecting the cables, he accidentally connected the ports of the two network cables to the wrong ones, and as a result, both stores were closed.
Case 5: Misjudged association.
There are many factors that cause association. For some factors we know, we should try to avoid them as much as possible and minimize the factors of association. In addition to the seller’s own reasons, sometimes Amazon’s system will misjudge the association. Previously, a seller used a set of information to register a Japanese account, but the account was linked as soon as it was registered. There were no problems with his network IP, computer, and registration information. After the recruitment manager assisted in the inquiry, he found that his account was linked to another seller’s account that had been blocked. But he was very sure that his registration information, network IP, and computer were clean and there was no association problem. The seller then wrote a letter to appeal and asked Amazon to re-verify his account, and soon the account was unblocked.
