Got a warning email from Amazon about something I didn't do

[aba84]

I just got an email from amazon warning me that my account is in danger and I need to fix the following:

• You are promoting your Special Links by including them in emails to your customers.

Thing is that I never sent any Amazon link via email and email marketing is not something I even practise, I am not even collection emails at my websites. all my Amazon links are strictly on blog posts.

I am thinking maybe it's possible that one of my competitors are trying to get me in trouble and have been using my affiliate links in emails and then reporting it to amazon? then what can I do really? When you think about it, it's a serious loophole in the Amazon affiliates policies, anybody can just copy his competitor amazon links, then use them in a forbidden way like sending mass spam emails with them and get him banned.

They told me I have 10 days to fix the issue but I have nothing to fix, should I just tell them that? feeling kind of nervous about as I am being accused of something I didn't do and there is nothing I can do to fix it.

Thanks in advance for any advice

First make sure it's from Amazon
Second contact them and explain the situation

Yeah it's from them for sure, thanks I am going to contact them but I am worried as I know they like things to get fixed and I have nothing to do about this.
