Since the German accounts earn almost nothing and the message was in German, I did not even read it. Later I found how to translate this message to English.
Then on December 4, I received the following message, which I noticed and translated:

I have a question what the possibility that the German account closer can affect my central account?
Can you please advise what I can do in this situation, shell I appeal or send the information they asked for?
Honestly, I have no idea what violation they found. The most possible reason …. I blocked the German visitors with iQ Block Country plugin about 2 months ago because I noticed a large number of toxic backlinks coming to my website from Germany. I wonder could amazon.de visit my website and was alarmed that is blocked.
However, my major concern is how the closer of the linked account can affect my central account?
