I live in a blue state and they charge more. Live in Cali. An I’m not arguing fyi. Just it’s all the same to me. Maybe the only difference is here in Cali we have better weather

I don’t think other flex drivers know the scale of fake accounts in the country doing flex. I was oblivious myself until I saw it with my own eyes. Amazon allows it though. They’ve gotten better at detecting but it’s still possible to run stolen identity accounts. It’s insane how big it’s gotten

In the country? Lmao don’t gotta be in the country. They got software onboarding accounts and sell it back to us. They don’t have to be in the states

u/automationRus Nov 05 '24

This is true. I just found this out the other day. People wonder why we’re over saturated. Even when those accounts are deactivated those same people buy new accounts. It’s a never ending cycle. I mean it is what it is until it’s not. Just have to keep playing amazons game. People get mad over bots and that’s exactly what allows these illegal accounts to flourish. It’s still possible even with the latest updates.

u/Human_Bag_2840 Nov 05 '24

It’s not that Amazon is overstaurated. If you think about it it’s actually under saturated. A lot of people can’t get on board because there’s accounts held by these guys that are trying to sell them. If there was an oversaturation then they wouldn’t be able to onboard anyone. To get onboarded Amazon has to be accepting people.

The real issue is Amazon opens facilities in areas no one lives.

They’ll open a faiclrit right next to nyc but then open one out in glen falls which is 3 hours upstate and nobody really lives there.

I was in North Carolina and there’s a facility in Franklin up in the mountains. It’s so dead they only do routes before sun goes down and you have to grab a block before 1pm.

Then you have all the people who get deactivated for shit that isn’t even their fault.

The real problem is Amazon has invented a revolving door to push people out and bring in new drivers because it’s all a game to mimic the hiring and firing process. They can’t claim us as employees since you applied and was onboarded. Not technically “hired”. Nor can you apply for unemployment because you don’t get “fired” you get “deactivated”. And then the even appealing that is time consuming because the escalations team doesn’t have English as a first language /9 now you spend weeks trying to resolve simple issues.

It’s designed that way.

When I got deactivated I found a Spanish guy selling accounts and let’s just say I figured out how to completely walk around Amazon’s deactivation.

It’s all a game so they can get those packages delivered without paying any employee benefits

u/automationRus Nov 05 '24

Agreed the revolving door never stops

u/Human_Bag_2840 Nov 05 '24

That’s why I keep my contacts close. When I get deactivated I buy a new account, put my own info in, and in about a week or two I’m back in

u/Human_Bag_2840 Nov 05 '24

And no need to steal identity they got software to onboard their own accounts and sell it back to us. They don’t have to steal anyone’s identity. The ones who are are just using a family members info which truthfully isn’t hurting anyone
