E-commerce giant, Amazon, has been handed a hefty fine of nearly $8 million by Poland's consumer protection agency, the UOKiK. This penalty is the result of an investigation into Amazon's sales practices that started in September 2021, and escalated into a formal inquiry by February 2023. The UOKiK has accused Amazon of "misleading consumers about the conclusion of sales contracts on its online marketplace" and employing deceptive design elements.
