Why can't the products that have been re-activated in my store appear on the buyer's side, but the store shows that they have been listed for sale, what's going on?

Now sinxce the update there is no option in the "offer" tab to run a sale.

Does anyone have an idea where to look?

A nasty side effect of Amazon's decision to block outside services that examine product listings — presumably to protect its advertising revenue — is that it effectively killed review fraud detectors like Mozilla's Fakespot.

The few remaining “fake review detector” websites appear to be fakes themselves.

For example, the Nullfake website — whose affiliate-link revenue model seems like an obvious conflict of interest — failed to flag the listings of seller NNPCBT. One of that seller’s product pages, packed with obvious fake reviews, was shut down last week — and their remaining listings look similarly suspect.

Given Amazon’s vast IT infrastructure and direct access to listing data, it should be straightforward for the company to analyze relationships among sellers, products, reviews, and reviewers to detect fraud with high accuracy.

Yet this forum is flooded with complaints about fake reviews, Amazon’s enforcement seems much weaker than you’d expect, and in cases like the seller noted above, Amazon appears to have shut down one deceptive listing without suspending the seller's account — possibly because fake reviews drive revenue.

Other than inspecting reviews ourselves for patterns of obvious fraud — like a lot of blocked reviewer histories, a high percentage of reviewers who leave only 5-star reviews for weirdly unrelated products, or sudden bursts of reviews in a short period of time — has anyone found a reliable way to spot review fraud?

I am a small/new business owner dealing with what appears to be a sabotage campaign. Every time my product hits the "100 sold" milestone or my ads take off, a wave of coordinated attacks begins.

I am stuck in a "Report Abuse" loop with Seller Support and desperately need advice on how to escalate this to a team that can actually investigate. I might ad this all got really bad after I my ad was accompanied by a 'Staff Choice' badge. (I don't recall the exact wording).

1. Severe Ad Click Fraud (Ad Budget Draining)

The Issue: Example - I have a highly optimized multi-product ad campaign where a $100 budget used to comfortably last all day with great conversion.

The Pattern: Right after my best sales days, this exact same ad will blast through my budget—sometimes $300+—in just 2 to 3 hours with near-zero sales. Often follow '100 sold in the past month' badge.

Evidence Example: Today one ad went from 424 impressions to 5,529 in one hour and 10 minuted, clicks skyrocketed and 0 orders ( on my best performing ad). That is a 1,200%+ explosion in traffic velocity.

2. Review Sabotage

The Issue: I am being hit with "faceless" 1-star reviews.

The Pattern: Often when I get a wave of positive organic reviews, a generic 1-star review follows. I’ve had to spend $600 on Vine enrollment just to dilute these fake negatives.

3. Targeted Return Abuse

The Issue: I recently earned the "Customer usually keeps this item" banner on a product that historically has a very low return rate.

The Pattern: Within days of getting the badge, I two back-to-back random "Not Wanted" returns, immediately stripping the badge away. I've also had returns with false facts on my products, of which Amazon has removed one of.

My Question for the Community & Mods:

Is there a specific department, email address, or escalation path to get a human to investigate this? The generic "Report Abuse" links are going nowhere, and I am bleeding money defending my listing from what are clearly coordinated, non-human/bot attacks.

Has anyone successfully stopped click fraud or targeted return attacks? Any advice is deeply appreciated.
