Amazon Kicks Price Gougers Off Its Marketplace
Troubled times can lead to bad actors trying to take advantage of the situation. That has happened during the coronavirus pandemic, with some people and companies attempting gouge prices on essential items like toilet paper, non-perishable food, and hand sanitizer.
Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) has been aggressive in fighting this abuse. It has already removed more than 1 million items that either had inflated prices or made false claims. Now it's going even further.
