Amazon.com has been sued by a group of consumers seeking refunds for amounts paid in excess for products whose prices have increased due to tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump.

The class action was filed on Friday in a federal court in Seattle, with the plaintiffs claiming that Amazon has collected hundreds of millions of dollars by raising prices before the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that these tariffs were imposed illegally. In February, the court ruled that Trump exceeded his legal authority by imposing these tariffs. Although many companies have begun to seek refunds, Amazon has not done so, leaving federal government funds to maintain favorable relations with Trump.

The lawsuit invokes claims of unjust enrichment and violation of Washington's consumer protection laws. The plaintiffs emphasize that the funds used by Amazon do not belong to them, having been wrongfully taken from consumers. The lawsuit follows similar actions against other companies, and consumers cannot directly request refunds from the government.
