Twitter has now suspended many of the accounts, and Amazon has confirmed at least one is fake.

Most of the accounts were made just a few days ago, often with only a few tweets, all related to Amazon.

Several of the high-profile accounts have been suspended by Twitter. It told the BBC that Amazon Ambassadors are subject to Twitter's rules on spam and platform manipulation.

Amazon is trying hard to stop any plans for unions as soon as possible, so it would not be surprising at all if there's a special PR-section that creates such fake support and praise.
