What this deactivation means

The check-in selfie or an automated 'robot verification' flagged the account: failed selfie matches (sometimes on days with no failed check-in at all), or bot-detection tripped by fast manual tapping during block grabs. These arrive in waves.

Where and when to appeal

Channel
In-app Help, then Account Actions, or reply to the deactivation email / email amazonflex-support@amazon.com. Replying to the original email keeps the case ID and routes to the deciding team.
Deadline
Move within ~5 business days; the case can auto-close and become permanent. Seattle: 90 days.
Decision time
~7-14 business days; first replies are often templated form rejections.

The evidence that moves this reason

  • Your check-in history
  • Device details
  • A fresh selfie matching your ID
  • A plain statement of manual app use
  • Timestamps showing normal behavior

What actually works

A computer flagged you, but a person reads your appeal. Ask for a human to review that exact check, and show it's still you: same face, same phone, same work history.

You can win this one, but only with strong, specific proof; a form letter won't move it.
