About Amazon Seller & Product Scam Checker
With millions of third-party sellers doing business on Amazon, not all of them are aboveboard. Our Amazon Scam Detector highlights the difference between a great deal and an out-and-out scam.
Why it matters even more today
Fake and poor quality postings have increased significantly. The scammers open up new seller accounts, take over valid postings, or fake reviews to cheat buyers. An unreasonably cheap price is another clear red flag.
What we test for you
- Seller History: How long has this seller been on Amazon? What’s their feedback score? A brand-new account with no history is a major red flag.
- Authenticity Review: Are they genuine reviews? Suspicious activity to look for includes an influx of generic 5-star reviews all at once or reviews that state bad quality.
- Price Sanity Check: If it is 70% cheaper anywhere else, it will be labeled suspicious.
- Description Details: Is the product description correct? Is it spelled correctly and grammatically correct? Scammers never focus much on details.
- Shipping expectations: Legitimate items typically ship via Prime or within a week. Red flags may include long delays, off-platform contact, or payment requests (see Amazon’s A-to-Z Guarantee).
How to use the tool
Just feed in the Amazon product URL and begin to scan by clicking Start scan. You'll be presented with an in-depth due diligence report with red flags highlighted (e.g., "Warning: Seller account is only 3 weeks old" in the case of questionable review patterns). Shop with confidence by reviewing offers before adding to cart.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I easily recognize a counterfeit Amazon listing?
Check for super-cheap prices, new sellers, variant/photo mismatches, and generic five-star floods. Check out brand registry clues and off-Amazon reputation.
Are "Just Released" sellers risker by default?
Not necessarily, but "new seller + costly item + limited reviews" requires additional caution.
Are the reviews from Amazon always reliable?
No. Sudden increases, repeated phraseology, off-the-point remarks, and timeline irregularities enable us to detect tampering.
What if a seller asks to pay off Amazon?
Decline. Keep messaging and payment on Amazon to stay covered by A-to-Z protection.
Do you check for brand authenticity ?
Yes. We look for registry indicators, packaging incongruities, and brand warnings if they exist.
