Bizarre credit card chargebacks for Pending Amazon Orders
If you are a third party Amazon seller doing business across the company’s international platforms, you must be very well aware that credit card chargebacks are quite rare.
Credit card chargebacks, which are also called “friendly fraud”, occur when a consumer makes an online shopping purchase with their own credit card, and then requests a reversal from the issuing bank after (or before) receiving the purchased goods or services.
An investigation follows, and if the bank feels the cardholder’s request is valid, funds are removed from the merchant’s account and returned to the consumer; the consumer, on the other hand, is in no way obligated to return whatever was purchased.
On Amazon, the seller is rarely held responsible, since the company covers any chargebacks with the reason “Unauthorized transaction”.
Unfortunately, there are cases when the seller is asked to submit a defense, despite the chargeback is completely frivolous.
Some are submitted when the buyer never contacted the seller or order’s Estimated Delivery Date haven’t passed yet.
One seller received two Credit Card chargebacks in a single day, both for Cancelled orders placed by the same buyer on 1.December 2020, which never left the Pending status.
As you can see in the screenshots below, the ordered item quantity in the chargeback notice e-mail is “0 of 1”, however the seller is still asked to supply the proof of shipment:

Amazon is now giving sellers the exact reason for Restricted Products Removal
If you are a third party seller doing business on Amazon’s platform, you might be already aware that they are rarely providing any clear reason at all for their enforcements. Amazon can remove your listings anytime and if you wish to have them reactivated, you will have to invest a significant amount of time and resources into appealing.
Recently, Amazon started briefly clarifying reasons for listing blocks in relevant notices, which includes those subject to Restricted Products Removal. If you carefully review the wording of e-mail received from Amazon, you will be able to detect, why they were removed.
By the way of example, a recent Restricted Products Removal notice states:
“Jewellery products cannot be described as “8 carat gold”, “10 carat gold” or similar as these are not recognised finesses of gold in the UK. For more info, please see the following; https://sellercentral.amazon.co.uk/gp/help/external/help.html?itemID=201744030&language=en_GB&ref=efph_201744030_relt_201744010”
The text of your notice should address your listing’s specific reasons.
Here you can view an example full e-mail from Amazon regarding Restricted Products Removal:

Additionally, here you can watch my YouTube video, where I am presenting you several secret tips about appealing Amazon Seller Account suspensions (don’t be confused by the opening of the video, where I am enjoying a vacation – it’s a part of the story):
As you know, Amazon now requires all third party sellers to implement two step verification in order to access their Seller Accounts. Many sellers are reaching out to me and seeking help with regaining access to their accounts when they are unable to perform two step verification.
This may happen when a seller loses their phone, for example. In such case, they will be unable to receive the OTP text code. If Two-Step Verification fails and you can’t access your account, you can try to recover it using alternative means.
To regain access to your account, you’ll need to verify your identity by providing a scan or photo of a government-issued identity document to Amazon. To protect your account, Amazon won’t be able to make changes to your Two-Step Verification settings until your identity is successfully verified. If you are able to sign in to your account, you’ll have access to make changes to your account.
Before you begin account recovery, try to sign in with a registered backup method or from a trusted device.
If you still can’t sign in, to recover your account:
- Go here.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to upload your identity document. Make sure that your name and address, and the issuing authority (e.g., state or country) are visible. Cover, conceal, or remove sensitive information such as account numbers or identification numbers.
The verification process can take 1-2 days to complete. Amazon will e-mail you to confirm once Two-Step Verification has been disabled. You’ll then be able to access your account with only your password.

In case you are an Amazon Seller who needs help with Seller Identity Verification on Amazon, please feel free to watch my most detailed video on the subject, addressing all common questions:
If you are an Amazon Seller doing business on their US platform, you must have received Amazon’s warning e-mail entitled New requirement for list prices starts June 30 in your inbox. Starting that date, Amazon will require any newly created listings to contain the List Price.
If you are wondering why is setting a List Price so important for Amazon, in this article I will be addressing your concerns. Whilst it will only take you a few seconds to update any listing with a List Price, you may not be aware of its pros and cons.
Once you upload the List Price, Amazon will save this figure as the product’s RRP. When you try to decrease or increase the product price later, your listing will get automatically deactivated over a Potential high / low pricing error or you will lose the BuyBox.
This is why you should carefully rethink whether you will provide this attribute on your existing listings and what figure will be entered as the List Price.
On the other hand, List Price can be a good idea when you have an otherwise expensive product, which you intend to sell at a significant discount. It is then shown as a strike-through Recommended Retail Price making the savings visible on the product detail page. Displaying the RRP when you are offering a price that is below it, will help customers understand the value of your offer, which may help to increase conversion.
If you do not have a ready-to-provide list price, Amazon suggests that a possible value could be the first price at which you have offered or will be offering the product. You can also provide a value of 0 to indicate that you do not have a list price.
Here you can view a copy of the wording of Amazon’s e-mail regarding the matter:
| New requirement for list prices starts June 30 Hello, You are receiving this email because you have previously added offers for certain product types that commonly include list prices. Beginning June 30, 2023, we will require the “List price” (also referred to as a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price) attribute to be completed for these product types. Your existing offers will not be affected by this change. Rather, when you create a new item listing, or when you edit an existing listing, you will see a prompt to fill out the “List price” attribute. If you do not have a ready-to-provide list price, a possible value could be the first price at which you have offered or will be offering the product. You can also provide a value of 0 to indicate that you do not have a list price. For more information, go to “Product type and attributes”: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/help/GYV2F6WS9N9FDYD9 You can download the full list of impacted product types from the following link: https://m.media-amazon.com/images/G/01/Product_Types_Requiring_List_Price/Product_Types_Required_List_Price.xlsx For more information on how Amazon uses list prices, go to “Show a reference price on your products by providing a List Price”: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/help/G27XM55CQM3SBMD2 The Amazon Services team |
