Amazon has permanently banned the sale of materials through its platform to more than 600 Chinese brands on 3.000 different vendor accounts. The company states that these 600 brands were banned because they knowingly and repeatedly violated Amazon's policies, especially those concerning customer abuse.

This repression began after reports by journalist Nicole Ngyuen of Wall Journal, για το πώς like RavPower and others (Aukey, Mpow, Vava, TaoTronics, Choetech etc) offered end consumers gift cards in exchange for writing a review.

Amazon banned the practice of encouraging criticism in 2016 because it is considered unfair competition and essentially a paid critique that may not be true, but the process proved to be a difficult one.

Some of these offers are covered as a VIP trial program or extended warranty. Other companies offer incentives only after you leave a bad review. They will give you a free product or offer you a "refund" without the need for a refund, as long as you delete your negative review.

It is unclear what other Chinese brands may be included in Amazon's latest crackdown. Although Aukey was one of the first high-profile companies to be banned by the company in May, the company continues to sell headphones under a different brand since June (Key Series) and you can still buy a pair from Amazon today.

In early July, parent company Shenzhen Youkeshu Technology (better known as YKS) reported that Amazon had closed 340 YKS online stores and frozen more than $ 20 million worth of assets. According to the South China Morning Post YKS was one of the platform's largest Chinese retailers.

Following is the full Amazon statement:
Amazon is working hard to create a great experience in our store so that customers can shop with confidence and sellers have the opportunity to grow their business in the midst of healthy competition.

Customers rely on the accuracy and authenticity of product reviews to make informed purchasing decisions and we have clear policies for both reviewers and sales associates.

We suspend, prohibit and take legal action against those who violate these policies, wherever they are in the world.

We will continue to improve the detection of misuse and take enforcement action against malicious agents, including those who knowingly engage in multiple and repeated policy violations, including the abuse of critics.

We are confident that the steps we take are in the best interest of our customers as well as the honest businesses that make up the vast majority of our global sales community.
