AMAZON.COM INC defeated a whistleblower appeal alleging it helped foreign fur manufacturers evade United States tariffs. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a dismissal of the lawsuit under the False Claims Act in May 2025, following a lower court's January 2025 decision. The ruling shields Amazon from liability for third-party seller fraud as its 2025 revenue surpassed WALMART INC.
