[@Megz1794]

@luv2dancesalsa465:depends on where the dress comes from though as in where the seller lives if it comes from out of the USA and the seller has a certain number of bad reviews that’s more of a buyer and seller problem than it is an Amazon one since buyers can read reviews if the seller has positive or negative feedback from customers. Since Amazon has several products that aren’t Amazon products aka products that are only sold by someone else from a different part of the world And Amazon probably doesn’t have technology to see if a photo is stolen from someone else. A lot of certain products aren’t even ones that Amazon sells themselves that comes from an Amazon warehouse since a lot of Amazon products are shipped by the seller of the product itself I think there’s a way to find out if the seller lives a different state than you since Amazon will tell you if you can contact the seller directly or if a package is trackable so you can find out if a package comes from a different part of the world. So I think the buyers problem is not reading up on the sellers reviews first for products since she also kept the dressed and she claims to have contacted several people but didn’t fully explain how she contacted the several people so I don’t think Amazon has a way to find out if a seller is a scammer or not or if a picture is stolen from a professsional. And a lot of times buyers don’t read the reviews for the product first before buying it
