It's a typical response from Amazon's representatives, most of whom fail to use common sense with claims that are clearly not associated with theft.

Did you use real or fake details on the account?

Can I ask why it would matter to file a police report under a fake name as it can be done online? Also I’d like to know would they even realise if you give a fake police reference number?

They contact the police department.

For real lol. That’s insane. Fake details on a police report shouldn’t be a problem then, right?

They insist that the police station is only open mon-fri, whilst on police station website they say they are open 7 days a week. I suppose I will just have to wait and hope for the best.

Did you file a legit report?

You can always us a fake # or report.  Report  numbers are usually like this -    month - how many calls your police department  has to date, so an example for 3/27/2022 would be case number 03-15377...........03 for March and 15377 cause it's the end of the month and theres been more case numbers.  I highly doubt that they are going to pay to get a copy.  If they do tell them you filed it somewhere elsewhere,  different town, city, etc.

They are counting  on you to be afraid to call-in a report . Most of the time Cops won't do anything about that, there's not enough time to investigate and almost impossible to track it all down.

Just adding some info.
