This is one of the most common reasons for suspension. Many sellers give wrongful, misleading information about the goods in the ”Item Description” section, in order to attract more customers. Many sellers also fail to successfully deliver the products to the original buyers. These are violation of the policies of Amazon and will surely result in suspension. Apart from the account getting suspended, criminal proceedings may also be initiated against such sellers.
