Amazon suit claims international ring stole millions in fraudulent refunds

In a lawsuit filed Thursday in the US District Court in Seattle, the online retailer accused the group, called REKK, of perpetrating the fraud between June 2022 and May 2023. The lawsuit includes more than 20 named defendants and 20 unnamed individuals.

According to the suit, REKK is a large player in an underground industry of fraudsters who "have created illegitimate 'businesses' offering fraudulent refunds to individuals around the world who are knowingly engaging with and participating in the fraud" to get expensive products free.
