Extension summary

Many of us like to shop on Amazon, and we like a good deal too. However, in our search for the best deals on Amazon, we might sometimes turn a blind eye to subtle signs that the seller is fraudulent. Amazon Shop Safe is an extension that prevents yourself, Uncle Joe or your dog from getting scammed by one of thousands of unscrupulous sellers on Amazon every day.

In addition to detecting 'Just Launched' sellers, Amazon Shop Safe also looks at other suspicious social cues that define a possibly fraudulent seller.

Are you a seller and wrongfully blacklisted? Contact us via email or the extension page.
