Hello Sellers,
We are dealing with a deactivation and are looking for advice from anyone who may have experienced something similar.
Here is the timeline of what happened:
Recently: We received a standard "Additional approval requirements for [a brand] products" notification . The email specifically stated, "This action does not impact your account health."
Shortly after, our account was fully deactivated under Section 3 for suspected inauthenticity, referencing the same couple of ASINs.
We submitted an appeal with invoices from our supplier for those ASINs.
Today, we received a rejection. The rejection stated our submission was insufficient because: "It does not include the specified items listed at the end of this message."
Here is the main problem: The list at the end of the email now includes not only the original ASINs but also several new ASINs that were never mentioned before. The total is now a larger list of ASINs.
We want to emphasize that we have never had any violations, customer complaints, returns, or authenticity issues related to ANY of these products. Our Account Health was clean before this event.
Our questions for the community are:
Has anyone else experienced this chain of events? Where a simple brand "approval" (gating) request escalates into a full account deactivation for "inauthenticity"?
Has anyone had Amazon reject their submission and add new ASINs to the requirement list that were not in the original violation?
How did you resolve this? Do we now have to provide perfect invoices for all the ASINs on the new list at once?
We would be extremely grateful for any help or shared experiences. Thank you.
