iPhone EB. Amazon 08-08-2023, 06:05 PM
#1
Hello Guys,
I recently did a EB of a iPhone at Amazon, the investigation was still ongoing but I pressured them, and now the Rep said don't worry I will solve it for you, and said I should just send back th Empty Box to them, and they would refund me.
She even created the Return Shipping Label.
Is it safe to return the Empty Box and then wait for the refund ,and turning the Phone on after the refund is completed?
Or would you say it is risky due to the IMEI of the device and they having the Box back?
How likely is Amazon to not get me my money back after receiving the box?
Done on aged account more than 5 Years, with Prime and never had refunds before.

The rep just told you to give the empty box itself, I don’t see the point of boxing them, what would you box? The box?
Just fulfil their request and make sure to have everything in writing in case problems will arise n future with them

Don't pressure the reps on this sort of occasion, because they can add your pressure to the investigation and at the end of the day it could be failed.
I don't believe in what I say. Everything is just fictional and made for a good laugh.
I don't answer PM.

I will do as the rep asked, they already send me it in written, so if anything goes wrong I can argue.
And regarding the Phone? Is it safe to turn it on and use it after the Refund hit my account?
Always wait for the funds to turn it on. Amazon may not have a way to check if the phone is on or off, but I have it as a superstition now, never on before the funds. You never know if they have some kind of way to check it

The thing is, on your order page doesnt it show the phones imei?
If it doesn't you should rub it out discreetly so it doesn't look like you did it on purpose. Amazon definitely has blocked imeis in the past.
