Having your Amazon account suspended is a scary possibility for any seller, and the Amazon Terms of Service can be confusing. But on today's podcast we will talk with Henson Wu CEO/Co-Founder of FeedbackWhiz on what to look out for and ways to avoid being suspended.

Over the past few months, Amazon has been strongly enforcing their TOS (Terms of Service). Therefore, it is imperative that sellers understand how to communicate with buyers via the Amazon messaging platform without violating any rules.

If you have seen the following message in Seller Central then you have been restricted:
