URGENT: FBA Shipment “Lost” – We Installed Electronic Trackers and Know Where It Is Inside YEG1
We're reaching out to the community and Amazon moderators with a serious and escalating issue.
After experiencing repeated problems with missing inventory at Amazon fulfillment centers, we decided to take a proactive step: we installed electronic trackers on our products shipped to FBA warehouses.
- Shipment ID: FBA18YSK3NM0
- Fulfillment Center: YEG1
- Case ID: 18164544431
Amazon support gave us the same standard response we've heard before: All pallets were received, but the products were missing—no reimbursement.
But this time we have concrete evidence:
- Our shipment was received at YEG1
- The electronic trackers confirm the products are physically present in the YEG1 facility—and we can identify their location.
QUESTIONS FOR THE FORUM:
- How do we escalate this beyond the generic Seller Support runaround? Does the Jeff Bezos escalation email still work in 2025?
- Since these losses may put us out of business, we’re considering reporting this to law enforcement (RCMP). Has anyone pursued this route before?
- Any lawyers familiar with Amazon FBA disputes or warehouse accountability you can recommend?
We’re not posting this lightly—this is a matter of survival for our small business.
Amazon moderators, we need meaningful help.
Thank you.

The Globe and Mail (and some other news organizations) have business reporters you can contact regarding this issue. Amazon management tends to pay more attention when they get bad publicity.

Can you say how you shipped this? SPD or LTL pallet?
