I am not sure if you are trolling, or are unable to read:

There is a third option: you have no clue what you're talking about and you're just trying to waffle your way through it.

The scam is not just someone hypothetically defaulting on future obligations, which wouldn't be specific to SES account sales. The scam is also the "method" those account sellers use to obtain the accounts (hacked/fake payments/etc) and to move them from SES sandbox to production mode to get the 50k limit. Because sure as shit they are not using their own personal details, they have to lie to support to get the limits raised, and they can't create those accounts anonymously, otherwise it wouldn't cost $200+.

So yes, they're scamming Amazon.

I have not used Amazon's SES service, but I am a customer of AWS, GCP, and others. I have gotten various limits raised on various cloud platforms, such as GPU, ASIC and notebook limits, and I have never had to do anything more than enable billing (the first time), or occasionally give a one-sentence explanation of what I am working on and an offer to show the repo with my work.

I had also looked at the documentation for increasing SES limits, and I don't see anything about having to provide any kind of personal details. A google search did not yield any results that imply personal information needs to be provided to increase SES sending limits. If you have evidence the accounts being sold are hacked or require verification resembling KYC, I would recommend reporting the threads, and the sellers will be banned.

If you believe fibbing on a form that AWS support might review constitutes a scam, I would suggest moving to about 400 miles south of San Francisco to Los Angelos, where walking on dry sand might get you arrested, but walking on wet sand is okay.
