Over the past two years Amazon has really cracked down on both buyers and sellers abusing the review system on Amazon. We saw this begin happening in 2015 with Amazon suing review for sale sites. 

In 2016 we saw Amazon begin suing actual review leavers themselves who sold reviews on Fiverr, and over the years we have seen some changes in the Amazon TOS or terms of service and policies regarding reviews.

Recently Amazon is cracking down again. This time it's for people insisting they get 5 star reviews or asking buyers outright for 5 star reviews.

Lately I've been contacted by a few people who have had their accounts suspended or whom were given warnings for having language to the effect of "Please contact me before leaving anything less than a 5 star review"

I wanted to make this video to call attention to this as on eBay were actually encouraged to try to work with our buyers and avoid negative feedback, however Amazon views this behavior as trying to only get 5 star reviews or steering buyers on the type of reviews to leave.

Because I could very easily see someoen very customer service focused making this honest mistake I wanted to make a video making you guys aware of it.

Also, stay tuned, within the next day or two I'm going to be posting a great video on everything you ever wanted to know about Amazon reviews.
