Seeing through Amazon's "0.12 USD" fake order number trick! A Shenzhen store was exposed

Seeing through Amazon's "0.12 USD" fake order number trick! A Shenzhen store was exposed
Recently, many products on Amazon have been sold at a price of $0.12 or more than 90% off. Some buyers have found a series of such products. After experiencing the entire shopping process, they said that there are actually many tricks in this way. Finally, a store located in Shenzhen was exposed!


From our own observations and feedback from American buyers, there are many products on the front desk that are priced at $0.12, including fascia guns, electric breast pumps, outdoor retractable sheds, mobile phone cases, etc., and there are more than one store. However, some stores are no longer searchable.


For example, the regular price of an electric breast pump is $69.99, but on March 18, the price was $0.12. Once this kind of product is discovered by buyers, it will spread quickly and generate a large number of sales in a short period of time, causing the product's sales ranking to soar rapidly .


However, there has been a large increase in the number of such products priced at $0.12 recently, and some buyers have discovered the trick.

First, not all products can be added to the shopping cart. Since buyers cannot successfully purchase, they will complain. Of course, this is not the main point.


Some buyers said that these $0.12 products were actually from scammers and would never be shipped. Even if Amazon would punish the stores, these scammers would still make a lot of money.


What makes buyers even more uneasy is that as long as they open the store introduction page of the "0.12 USD" product, they can usually see a lot of negative feedback.

For example, one of the stores started to receive almost all one-star reviews related to "fake tracking numbers" in March. By providing fake tracking numbers, the arrival time of the goods will exceed 30 days , so that consumers cannot return the goods according to the 30-day free return policy . In addition, the store does not respond to any buyer emails or in-site messages .


Some buyers even believe that the stores that put these "US$0.12" products on the shelves will eventually cancel the orders and obtain the buyer's address, mobile phone number and other information, which are all illegal.


One of the stores that sells products priced at $0.12 was even picked up by the FB group and put on the "alert" list. This is a store opened by a Shenzhen company.


This wave of “0.12 USD” routine is very dangerous. If it continues to spread, a series of policies such as returns will only become increasingly disadvantageous to the majority of Amazon sellers!
