Received Verification Request Letter To my Personal Email Addresses From Someone
Im a new seller and I received a letter to verify my 1 item that I sorced legally from a store with a valid receipt. I'm trying to understand why im being picked on when there are 15 other sellers on the same listing. I don't even know if they are real and the fact that they have my personal emails they sent that email to my two personal emails has annoyed me and Amazon has not said anything to me about the listing. I'm trying to figure out how they obtained my personal information. Can anyone tell me what I should do with this? I have told them I don't mind providing a receipt however, I would like to know how they got both of my personal email addresses.

Big newbie mistake. Amazon does not accept store receipts. Receipts mean you purchased the item retail and marked it up to a higher price to take advantage of an Amazon buyer. When found out, Amazon always deactivates the product and sometimes the account.
Amazon wants to see your manufacturer invoice. Amazon knows what an invoice includes. An invoice is used when Your USA business has a retail commercial credit account with the manufacturer. Most all invoices include all of the following:
- YOUR: business name, business address, business phone, sales tax exempt number, your EIN number, your credit line, and terms of sale
- MANUFACTURER’S: address, phone, EIN number, account Rep’s name
- PRODUCT’S: quantity, SKU-Model number,
- DISCOUNTS PROCESSES ON THIS PURHASE: quantity, sale, specials
- TERMS OF SHIPPING: method, who pays, company used, tracking number
- TERMS OF PAYMENT: 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, interest assessed
Some have more, but they all use the same basic format. Even when you call and make a small online order and pay by credit card, an invoice is still sent to you separately containing all of the above.
If you purchased the items from a distributor using cash and carry, or on-line with a credit card, and paid sales tax on it, you are not buying wholesale from the manufacturer
Without that invoice, the product will not be sold.
