Fuck, I cookie stuffed Amazon in error for a few hours

I fucked up with some jQuery and instead of embedding a link, I redirected traffic to amazon. Didn't realise for a few hours, but that was enough to set enough cookies to take credit for sales...



Even though my visitor got redirected to amazon, which probably was a good enough reason to prompt some surfers to buy something, it's against their policy as it wasn't a click and can be seen (and rightly so) as cookie stuffing...

Anyone know how I can get these sales erased from my account before they go ahead and lock my account? The account is too valuable in terms of real clicks/sales to get it locked, for the sake of a few quid made from those sales.
