【老魏聊电商】小心!高折扣刷单是一个坑!
几乎每天都会收到一些卖家的询问:可以给Reviewers发高折扣Code刷测评吗?可以使用某某营销工具设置高折扣刷单吗?每一次遇到这种询问我都忍不住一声叹息。
解释吧?似乎这又是老生常谈。不解释吧?询问的卖家又明明是新手卖家。
很多问题,对于老卖家来说,早知道这是不可触碰的坑,而且很多人做了很多分享,把自己的经验和教训呈现出来,可是对于新人来说,要么是没有看到,要么是心存侥幸而想去尝试。
但现实就是平台的规则越来越规范,违规操作的成本越来越大,要想长期的运营,必须严格遵守平台的规则才行。
关于刷单刷评可能导致的风险,下面这封邮件就是最近一位卖家刷单之后收到的。

相信收到这封通知的卖家心情是非常糟糕的,但是“出来混,总是要还的”,既然违背了平台规则,也只能自食其果。
我想简单的聊一聊关于刷单的一点看法。
1. 通过找Top 10000 Reviewer刷单。这种方式在很久之前是很流行的,但是现在是绝对不行的,有些Reviewers已经被亚马逊限制留评价,有些甚至被注销了账号,对于卖家来说,找这些Reviewers刷单,不啻于直白的告诉平台,你正在进行刷单的行为,所以,坚决不可以采用。
2. 通过自发货的方式刷单(刷评)。 有卖家自己通过多个账号操作,或者找一些不太可靠的中介操作,采用刷自发货的Listing的方式进行刷单,如果卖家采用的是FBA发货,中介也会告诉你可以通过跟卖的方式,刷跟卖的Listing,然后,因为订单和Review是汇总的,所以,也可以加总到原始Listing上来,但卖家不要忘了,亚马逊作为网购平台之外,更是一家大数据分析公司,而这些操作方式,无论是刷单用的账号,还是IP地址,以及账号的购买记录等,都很容易让亚马逊识别到其非正常行为,很容易被判定为刷单,轻则Listing被暗中降权,严重一点的,会受到亚马逊的直接警告,再严重的,就可能导致账号受限(类似于上述邮件),所以,这种方式也不可取。
3. 通过美国本土真实账号购买。这是当前相对来说比较安全的一种方式,即通过美国本土的真实账号,把这些真实账号的用户组建在一个微信群里,需要刷单的卖家在群里发出自己的产品信息以及给出的折扣和返佣,买家看到后自行认领,返现的方式通过Amazon之外的渠道,比如Paypal或者微信支付等,这种方式的操作,沟通是在平台之外,付款和返佣也是在平台之外,而发货又是通过FBA的真实发货,相对来说更安全,但也必须说的是,即便这样的方式,也已经成为亚马逊的检测对象,已经有卖家通过此方式获得的评价被删除了。
基于上述各种情况的风险,老魏我的看法是,虽然刷单刷评似乎成了运营必须的手段,但也不要过度,适量即可,单纯依靠刷是无法达成运营目标的。刷单需要成本,卖家倒不如把这些成本让渡到产品售价上,产品售价具有竞争力,订单自然就多了,而对于刷评,一定要用真实购买,然后FBA发货的方式进行,同时还要把握好数量,对于大部分类目,真实留评率不到1%,如果你刷到3%还可以接受,但你硬生生的搞出来一个10%的留评率,你说是你傻呢还是你觉得亚马逊系统的甄别能力不行呢?
