How did they connect your Amazon listings with your website?

Via email addresses and phone#, over the years I had to deal with them screwing up our listings more than a few times so they have all our contact information.

They are now sending anonymous emails signed "Seller Performance Team" to basically tell you that you need to comply.

Most likely these are originated in India, because this is where their completely worthless and incompetent technical support team is (never had a normal answer from help stuff from up there, not a single one, a typical answer is to push the bucket back to you), and because emails come in between 1 and 3 AM US time.

The other reason I think they are India-based, because they refuse to sign a name and give out a local number.

I didn't think they'd enforce it either, my guess is that their left hand doesn't know what the right is doing.

Here's a quote from their email:

According to your seller agreement, the item prices and total prices you charge customers for products that you choose to list on Amazon.com must generally be at least as favorable as the item prices and total prices you charge customers via other sales channels. In most cases, the “total price” of a product means the total amount payable by a customer for a product, including discounts, rebates, promotions and shipping, but excluding taxes.
