Amazon demands

Don’t use fake Amazon accounts with pre paid visas to buy and refund his ebooks and buy and cancel his hardbacks.

Definitely don’t use his address as the Amazon account.

Don’t do this, guys.
How does this negatively effect him?

He doesnt need our help for his books to be a failure.
His books sales are already in the tank. All we have to do is nothing.
That's the most damning evidence that points to this being a false flag. At no point did anyone here feel this awful fucking book needed any help being sabotaged. People were too busy mocking the abysmal premise and Pig's work ethic for the subject of future trolling plans to even come up.

All his tweets still just get a handful of likes and couple of responses and its the same people. The only media that touches him are the ones that are laughing at him. Yet pat still claims he gets paid to tweet about politics.

Not only does this book have no publishers behind it, but more importantly it's got two things going against it.

A) seasonality. Even if it's not set at Christmas, the fact that it's a "sequel" to A Christmas Carol will brand it as seasonal in consumers' eyes, which will afford it a very short shelf life. And only the "classic" or "legacy" Christmas titles get continued pushes every Christmas season. Not even Glenn Beck, who is far more well known, successful and beloved than Pat, could manage making The Christmas Sweater into an annual hit. I think that the last "new" seasonal title added to the pantheon was "Skipping Christmas", by John Grisham. You ain't Grisham, Pat.

B) satire. Satire works best in small doses, like a short story. It's difficult to sustain interest in a satire title for a long term title. Again, exceptions exist - largely Hitchhiker's Guide, which anchored the satire with a genuinely fun, interesting story. And that was Douglas fucking Adams, and again Pat - you ain't Adams.

How exactly does this affect him in the very hypothetical scenario someone does this, let’s say… 20 times a month?
He replied to some other shitty author complaining about this a few weeks ago. Sounds like Amazon pays him for the books initially but when they get returned his account goes in the red and he ends up owing the money back. Indian Giving via Amazon Prime. I'm not 100% on that but that was my impression.

Sure Pat, they're going to escalate your condescending demand made over Twitter directly to their C suite.

He's so out of touch with how the real world actually works. He has no idea how much actual work it takes to get a customer-facing policy changed, one that has financial impacts to both buyers and sellers, no less. It basically requires approval from the Retail LOB's Chief Compliance Officer and CFO (at minimum), and they'd need to run it up the totem pole to the Corporate C-Suite before going live.

To make it easy for those of us with a 1.7 GPA - that type of change doesn't happen overnight at a company like Amazon. Your best bet is to just write better books and stop being a cunt, stupid.
