Amazon.com told some shoppers on Wednesday that there was a problem when they were trying to view product listings.

"Sorry something went wrong on our end," Amazon said on a page some shoppers were sent to after clicking on items from its U.S. home page. A different image of a dog greeted users each time.

Many shoppers took to Twitter to report the error message, which Reuters witnesses separately viewed. The cause of the apparent error was not clear.

Company representatives did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
