This is the correct answer. They are trying to avoid being banned from selling on Amazon or eBay or some other site by presenting “evidence” that they are legitimately shipping product to customers.

Customers order something and then complain they never got it. When the company attempts to investigate whether they are legit, they use these fake shipments as “proof” they are not scamming people by taking their money and never shipping what they ordered.

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.
