“All product information, such as description, images, pricing and ratings, comes from merchant sites, according to Amazon’s FAQ page. “This information is refreshed regularly to reflect changes merchants make on their sites.” But Amazon also says it “may modify these for display on the Amazon Shopping app.” That might explain why one of Chua’s products listed on Amazon through “Buy For Me” — a vinyl sticker — erroneously displayed a photo of a pair of pants, a product that Chua has never sold. It’s unclear where the image came from, but Amazon says it doesn’t generate AI images of a brand’s products. “It was a totally random stock image,” Chua said. “I don’t sell pants.” Chua also received at least several orders for products that were either out of stock or no longer existed on her website. She said she canceled several of those purchases and issued refunds after realizing Amazon had enabled customers to order items that had been fully removed from her online store.”
