Amazon Suspension: Customer Product Reviews Policy Violations

If your Amazon seller account has been suspended for Customer Product Reviews Policy Violations, it means Amazon has detected activity related to manipulating, influencing, or interfering with customer reviews. Amazon has a strict policy to protect the integrity of its review system, and even minor infractions can result in immediate suspension or permanent account deactivation.

Whether intentional or accidental, violating this policy can seriously damage your seller reputation and future ability to sell on Amazon.

What Counts as a Product Review Violation?

Amazon prohibits any attempt to manipulate reviews. Common violations include:

Review Generation
  • Offering incentives (discounts, refunds, free products) in exchange for positive reviews
  • Asking friends, family, or employees to leave reviews
  • Posting fake reviews or using third-party services to generate feedback
  • Reviewing your own products or a competitor’s products
  • Contacting customers with requests to change or remove negative feedback

Even if you don’t directly ask for a review, any suggestive messaging or improper communication can be flagged as manipulation.

Why Amazon Enforces This Strictly

Amazon’s success relies on authentic, unbiased customer feedback. When sellers manipulate reviews, it undermines buyer trust. If you violate this policy:

  • Amazon may remove your listings or suspend your account
  • Past reviews may be deleted
  • You could be permanently banned from the platform
  • Legal action is possible for fraudulent or deceptive conduct

This suspension can certainly be fixed, but will take multiple appeals and a detailed plan of action before
we can get you selling again. On average it takes 8 appeals and revisions of the plan of action before we get your account reinstated.
