Amazon Fraud Report Of Oshane Stewart

Oshane Steward was dealt with legally for his Amazon fraud report as court documents and statements all indicted his fraudulent act. The Amazon fraud report can be traced back to the thirty-one-year-old Shelton man who allegedly used multiple vendor accounts to sell merchandise through a third party on the Amazon website. According to the Amazon fraud report via the United States Attorney’s Office, the perpetrator created the accounts by providing false names and email addresses, among others.

After setting up the accounts, the Shelton man would notify Amazon he was shipping the valuable merchandise to be sold by the company. The Amazon fraud report added that Stewart would claim he shipped the merchandise but would pretend that it had been lost. The scammer would then support his false claims with fabricated documents. The Amazon fraud report has it that Amazon sent Stewart a series of refunds for the “lost” merchandise.
