You're wrong. Amazon mixes inventory between themselves and any other seller that's fulfilled by Amazon, meaning if one random seller has fake product, then even the "sold by Amazon" option can send you that other seller's fake product. And vice versa, of course.

Ooph yeah that seems pretty bad. What is even the purpose of seller rating with FBA if the inventories are mixed?
