I think it's a rare thing to happen, but it can happen.

In general there's 3 types of retailers on Amazon:
1) Amazon itself, typically this is considered the safest option, as they are products Amazon buys and warehouses.
2) Retailers that have Amazon store/ship their goods - mostly because it sounds like Amazon tries to inspect them as they are doing the storage/shipping.
3) Retailers that just have an "ad" on Amazon and the seller ships directly, so Amazon never touches the items. These are the most risky. Now obviously if it's a well known retailer, authorized dealer etc. that's different.
These are lithium batteries, much more expensive than alkaline but have very niche use cases
These are fake which is why they are clearing them out potentially, the rest will go on woot in due time where returns are nearly impossible without waisting at least 30 minutes in emails and follow ups.
I moved from blink to ring for this reason.
