The issue was first spotted by a user, rather than disclosed in any official announcement. A Razr 60 Ultra owner on Reddit noticed something odd when opening the Amazon app from the app drawer. Instead of launching directly, the phone briefly opened a browser window, passed through a third-party URL, and then landed on Amazon. The entire sequence happens fast enough that most users would never notice unless they were actively watching for it.
A look at the device's network logs suggests this isn't just a random bug. Logs captured via Android Debug Bridge show traffic sent to devicenative.com, an ad-tech domain that publishes documentation on how it works with Motorola phones.
The behavior appears linked to Smart Feed, a pre-installed Motorola app that typically surfaces content and recommendations. In this case, it seems to be doing more than that – intercepting the Amazon app launch and slipping in an affiliate-tagged redirect along the way.
Further digging revealed that one of the redirect URLs is kira-abboud.com, which points to a fashion influencer brand. However, the affiliate code attached during the redirect – "sramz-kff-008-20" – does not match any codes associated with that influencer's known links. That mismatch hints that the affiliate tag isn't coming from a straightforward influencer deal but from a middle layer in the chain.
