Amazon sues coaches for selling deceptive courses of no value
Amazon started suing people and companies for selling courses on how to make money on Amazon.
Amazon filed suit against Online Secrets, Prime Global Source, Michael Gazzola, Matthew Behdjou and other parties for trademark infringement, reports domainnamewire.com.
The lawsuit alleges that the sellers have “exploited Amazon’s brand to perpetrate a widespread get-rich-quick scheme that revolves around seeking to fake, and inducing others to fake, product reviews, and other dishonest techniques that violate Amazon’s third-party seller agreements. Through deceptive marketing, Defendants use high pressure sales tactics to swindle Amazon third-party sellers (or prospective sellers) into purchasing Defendants’ services.”
Some of the domains allegedly used by defendants include amazonsecretsfunnels.com, amazontrainingapplication.com and amazonsellinghacks.com.
Amazon also sues FBA Stores and its cofounders Chris and Adam Bowser, because they “persuade unwitting entrepreneurs to spend thousands of dollars on seminars and training programs of little, if any, value” and “By the time that students realize they have been taken advantage of, the limited refund period has expired and Defendants refuse further communication”, reports buzzfeednews.com.
