In reply to ED Rosenberg. I personally have seen black hat discussions and major TOS violations occur on the ASTSG Telegram channels; they also sell stolen accounts

Hi Dave. There is a significant context that will totally flip my involvement in this “scheme”. My team and I have worked on around 10k projects that include Suspensions, ASINS, Rights Owner and other projects.

Consider what ASGTG has accomplished.
#1 Weekly Email on Amazon issues
FB group of 65k+ stressing and encouraging following TOS since 2015
instant Amazon alerts that reached the sellers community in seconds
83+ Telegram groups that is WH since 2015,
In-person events stressing compliance,
100+ webinars that all stress WH and worked with authentic Amazon sources both to make systemic changes and save one-off ticking time bombs.
I have personally escalated 1200+ ticking time bomb cases to ethical AMAZON for a second review
that got reinstated and always for altruistic reasons (no fee unless my POA team worked on it)

So far not one person, in an industry built on scale has corroborated one sentence that was stated against me which is mind-boggling since its been 20 months since these accusations. Do you find that likely?

Keep in mind this is an industry that has Open hack a thons, endless ungating guaranteed with REAL fake invoices, fake invoices for REAL suppliers in 24 hours (any date, any qty), get email of customer orders, feedback stuffing. reverse sabotage, asin remapping, fake reviews, fake upvotes, stealth accounts, competitor ppc reports, REAL fake utility bills that ALWAYS works, fake passports, clean invoice editing, keyword sabotage, stealth buyers, fake REAL utility bills, remove IP complaint guaranteed, refund w/ pp after buy and proof of review, insider reinstatement (any type!), daring feedback removal, bad reviews for a competitor (minimum 10), downvote competitor positives, stealth Payoneer accounts, instant funds release even if seized, millions of review groups and selling sops, changing competitor images, file fake RO complaints and much more.

So with all that ASGTG has accomplished, the allegations are that I used one bad consultant to open one account and somehow ASGTG IS the problem? What would be my motive? and even if true (its not), why would anyone care? Clearly substantial context is missing so I would advise you to wait until the true facts emerge.

All Sellers that used these “services” should be identified and prosecuted.
Amazon should be following up (ha!) and reimbursing, reinstating and most of all notifying all Sellers damaged by this and other known conspiracies.

Amazon alone is responsible for providing a fair (or at least non-fraudulent) MatketPlace.

In reply to Dave. Ultimately, a fairer and more level-playingfield is better. For better or worse, there's a LOT of people doing the things the 6 here got indicted for. We'll see if it has an impact on others.

Wow, some serious scumbaggery going on there! Good riddance to the cheats.

Wow, a lot to unravel here, thank you for sharing publicly! I think it’s overall probably a good thing to make this all go public to both scare some sellers from doing some black hat tactics which are simply unfair AND to shine a light on it for Amazon to be more diligent about improving the experience for both sellers and buyers.

What do you think Dave? Is this overall a good or bad thing?
