Case Study: Amazon Inauthentic Suspension

What Happened

A client reached out to us with a common, but incredibly frustrating issue: his Amazon seller account was deactivated due to “inauthentic products”.

He had already submitted multiple appeals through Seller Central — but every appeal was rejected. He even hired freelancers to help write the appeals, but Amazon’s response never changed:

“We received your submission but do not have enough information to reactivate your account.”

‍

Our team at Mr. Jeff has successfully resolved over 300 cases of inauthentic product suspensions, so we knew exactly how to approach this problem strategically.

🛠 Our Solution

‍For Amazon seller accounts suspended due to inauthentic product violations, we apply a proven multi-level escalation strategy. This approach includes in-depth root cause investigation, professionally crafted appeals, and targeted escalation to the BBB and Amazon executives. By following this structured process, we maximize the chances of account reinstatement — even in the most complex and persistent suspension cases.

‍

Step 1 – 🔍 Investigating the Root Cause

The first step in any Amazon suspension appeal is understanding why the account was flagged.
We launched a thorough investigation into the client’s supply chain and quickly discovered a critical issue: their supplier was sourcing the product directly from Amazon.

We explained to the client why this practice is risky:

• Amazon considers it a violation of sourcing policies.
• It often results in inauthentic product claims.
• Previous appeals failed because they didn’t address this root cause.

Armed with this insight, we built a new, evidence-based appeal plan from scratch.

‍

‍

Step 2 – Seller Central Appeal

We crafted a professional, fully compliant appeal with all supporting documents, invoices, and explanations addressing Amazon’s concerns in detail.

However, the result was disappointing:

• The appeal was rejected again.
• The tone of the rejection suggested it wasn’t even reviewed properly.

At this point, it was clear — we needed to move beyond standard Seller Central support.

‍

Step 3 – Filing a Complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB)

Our next escalation step was to file a formal complaint with the BBB, outlining:

• The full history of the suspension.
• Evidence proving the products were genuine.
• Our request for assistance in escalating the case to Amazon.

Despite this effort, Amazon’s response remained unchanged, and the account stayed suspended.

But we didn’t stop there — we stayed committed to our escalation strategy and moved forward to the next step.

‍

Step 4 – Executive Escalation

With no progress from Seller Central or the BBB, we moved to executive escalation — a proven strategy for Amazon account reinstatement in difficult cases.

We:

• Drafted a detailed letter to Amazon executives, requesting a manual review.
• Provided all previous case history, rejected appeals, and supplier verification.
• Followed up persistently when the first messages went unanswered.

Our first letters to executives were ignored, but we remained persistent. We sent updated letters and continued following up. After the fourth updated letter to executives, the case was finally reviewed properly

‍

✅ The Result: Account Reinstated

After we escalated the case to Amazon Executives, Amazon finally conducted a manual review and fully reactivated the account.

The client regained complete access to their Seller Central, and all withheld funds were released. Most importantly, the business was back on track and our client could resume selling on Amazon with confidence.

This case proves one thing: persistence pays off. Even when a suspension case seems hopeless, the Mr. Jeff reinstatement team does not stop until every possible escalation path is explored.
