What’s the loss for you if you did reset the account, or even just started a new one with another email address?

Also I’m not clear why being contacted by a recruiter at Amzn was relevant to the story?

Only relevant in so much as I wanted to use the same account that I had previously applied to jobs with, figuring that it would contain a bunch of manually input information. The loss to me is a more complete purchase history, should I need to reference it, recoving any documents I've uploaded to kindle, and I may have used the account for a number of other amazon services
