Hi all,

Today I created a new account with amazon.es (Spain). I then proceeded to add my card information for payment and I saw that my bank card is already in my wallet on amazon. I have never had any account with amazon.es and this was a brand new registration. How is this possible? Is this some form of automated system where it makes it more convenient for the customer?

To me that means that Amazon has linked my registration with my UK Amazon account and has transferred over my payment information.

To add more insult to injury I then proceeded to register for amazon.de and amazon.nl but decided to see what will happen if I use the same log in information as I have created on amazon.es. BOOM to my surprise I was let in both amazon.de and amazon.nl using my amazon.es log in. I can assure you I have never created accounts in amazon.de and amazon.nl, and needles to say my payment information was present in those as well.

Any information regarding this is welcomed. Thank you!

Hello, when creating a new amazon account, it is created for all the different countries of the website. Orders are exclusive to each website tough.

Correct.

Amazon does have the capacity to link accounts located/created In other countries.

Thank you for clarifying that. It is good news that orders are still separate though, that would have been not so good.

Thank you for the info. As the other user said the orders are still separate for each country so this is still good for me.


Another question, would my refunds become problematic due to this? Should I have an independent account for each country with different email address or would that become a problem once I abuse the system too much (not planning on doing so)?

Absolutely.

Each location has their own (segregated) administration & claims department.

Accounts generally get flagged when Inconsistencies are detected/noticed.

If you don't give reason to raise suspicion, then you can well and truly keep going with your refunds.
As a reminder (but not limited to):

* Be sure to allow sufficient timing between each SE.
* Don't use the same method consecutively.
* Perform a few legit SEs In between.
* Throw In some low value Items.
* Set a limit and stick to It.

These will significantly Increase the longevity of your account(s).

Thank you, I am trying to stick to a good plan which consist on the aforementioned points and I tend to keep it on the safe side by increasing orders and time between each SE.

Your formulation Is very good practice- not many SE'ers strategically apply themselves In this fashion.

Well done.

Your account could also get flagged when the majority of the products SEd are more expensive than the average of the products legitimately bought.
In my opinion they also check this.

* Throw In some low value Items.

What do you mean with this?

Self-explanatory.

Cheap Items.
