Last sentence in the article:

>Amazon has several requirements for third-party sellers on its website: They must provide a business name, address, contact information, a valid credit card, and tax identity information.

It doesn't seem like that difficult to comply.

That's not really the last sentence in the article. There's an ad break, then a bit more stuff.

You are right, haven't noticed that, cannot correct/edit the previous post anymore, just imagine that there is "near the end of the article" instead of "last".

Anyway, it seems to me very unlike a thorough "vetting" procedure for merchants that you are going to "host" on your platform, if the Author had used "a few" or "very few" instead of "several" it wouldn't have sound "strange" to me.

These days you need to verify photo ID as well.

What if the biggest source of profit in blue collar work is arbitraging / laundering identity?
