Was Amazon hacked? Many listings now showing a "Guy Fawkes" mask

I just noticed something interesting, a lot of product listings related to weight loss or keto are now showing a Guy Fawkes mask as their product images, even for some big name products.

Surprised no one has mentioned this yet. These are just a few that I found, but it seems to be affecting hundreds of products:

This is exactly why you should setup MFA (multi-factor authentication). I am a Enterprise Architect in software engineering, and if you haven’t setup MFA, I’m tell you right now, DO IT!! Don’t put your account at risk.

Also, don’t reuse your password from website to website.

It looks like a malicious attack by Chinese sellers to damage competing product’s rankings before holidays.

They use hacked Chinese software. I get Chinese symbols popping up on my screen.

Time Warner should file an IP infringement on these listings since they own the Guy Fawkes image.

Yup’. It’s all about sabotaging listings during Christmas time. It’s unfortunate that Amazon doesn’t have a more active response to these saboteurs.

these listings seem fixed now but the fact such things happen here is disturbing…you know, because of the obvious vulnerability.

by the way, the symbols for forum post LIKE, EDIT, etc are no longer displaying properly on my tablet…anyone else seeing this? looks fine on pc and was fine on my tablet until a few days ago…
