The federal regulator's enforcement
division has asked for emails and communications from several senior Amazon
executives, according to the report, which cited people familiar with the
matter.
Amazon did not immediately respond to a
request for comment, while a spokesperson for the SEC declined to comment on
the report.
Amazon has been repeatedly accused of
knocking off products it sells on its website and of exploiting its vast trove
of internal data to promote its own merchandise at the expense of other
sellers. The company has denied the allegations.
Following a series of media reports in
2020, Amazon launched an internal investigation to review whether its employees
used sellers' data to promote Amazon's private-label business.
The company, however, declined to provide
the findings to a congressional committee that earlier investigated the
e-commerce major and other technology companies, according to the report.
