Amazon Releases Seller Information – Revealing Full Account Names of Sellers Accused of Being Related to Other Amazon Accounts
Amazon sellers, today’s breaking news is really mixed. It’s not really great, but it’s not awful either. It has everything to do with related account suspensions as Amazon releases seller information.
Before we get to the news about related account suspensions, I had the opportunity today to do some emails with Empire Flippers. If you are looking to exit your Amazon based business and you want to sell, or you are looking to buy an Amazon based business or any other online business, the only broker we recommend around the entire world is Empire Flippers.

Let’s get to the breaking news today..
It has to do with related accounts. So the bad news is that related account suspensions are up. The good news is Amazon is sometimes releasing the full name of the account you’re being accused of being related to.
So if Amazon has caught you and Amazon is right, you’re going to know it because you’re going to recognize the other account or the full name associated with that account. Also, if one of your employees / staff has an account in their basement, if they’re not supposed to be involved in another account yet they are behind your back, you’re going to know that as well. So in a way it’s good news because Amazon is actually giving you more information. The bad news is the big reveal a few months ago when Amazon was releasing your information and your addresses. That is coming back to haunt you in another way because the related account suspensions are up.
So the news today is mixed. Amazon is coming after you for related accounts. It’s bad that Amazon, likely the most diverse company on earth is coming down again on sellers for diversifying a bit so that you’re not subject to one account being suspended and your entire income going away. The good news is at least when Amazon is doing it, they’re giving you more information. So either you know you got caught or you can identify what the relationship is or identify that there is no relationship.
