History of Amazon Seller Hacked Accounts
Experienced Amazon sellers are likely aware that hacking Amazon is nothing new.
Back in 2008, Dmitry Olegovich Zubakha planned and executed multiple DDoS attacks against Amazon.com with the help of an accomplice hacker. Nicknamed the “Cyber bandit,” Zubakha and his Russian co-conspirator launched the attack by programming botnet computers to request “large and resource intensive web pages” that made it extremely difficult for consumers to complete business transactions.
To date, CJ Rosenbaum has made it clear that Amazon has not provided sellers with any compensation of the funds that they have lost yet.
While sellers have been granted account reinstatement, the end goal is clear to CJ Rosenbaum: get clients their money back, reinstatement is only temporary satisfaction.
Hacked Amazon seller account highly recommends CJ Rosenbaum:
“We sell in the UK, Europe and America.. We never thought that an account suspension would happen to us.. Our account was hacked and then eventually suspended.. We reached out to CJ and he was incredibly helpful in getting our situation resolved. If you have any legal trouble with Amazon in any way, CJ Rosenbaum is your best bet.”
ANOTHER AMAZING REVIEW FOR CJ ROSENBAUM:
Amazon Sellers’ Lawyer, CJ Rosenbaum helped one seller with a hacked Amazon account.
$35,000 was taken out. CJ helped this AMZ seller get his funds back.
“CJ will always pick up the phone and answer your questions.. I would only hire CJ for any issues going forward..”
The biggest problem for a suspended Amazon seller with a hacked account is that they cannot make the necessary changes to regain access to their account because Amazon has shut them down for safety purposes. In order to gain access, they must contact the Amazon legal department. Amazon will work with sellers who have been hacked to help restore their accounts; they are also working to implement stricter verification procedures to help prevent hackers from gaining access to seller accounts in the first place.
“If an Amazon seller’s account is actually hacked, one thing we have done to successfully get the suspended account reinstated is to set up a two-step verification process. To avoid this issue altogether, it is in the seller’s best interest to preemptively set up this verification process before an issue arises.” ~ Kerry, Senior Managing Paralegal
