It is the standard extension to identify KF8 files which are really ePub files in a MOBI wrapper. I do agree that the OP is an amateur trying to charge for his work it would seem.

No. AZW3 is an Amazon-crafted file extension for the KF8 files, that have been through the post-upload Amazon workflow, what they call the "PW" or Publishing Workflow. The only other files that have/use/create that file extension, outside of the Amazon ecosystem, are those made with Calibre.
THAT was my entire point. That the file that was uploaded was obviously Calibre-made, that's IT. How this went off the rails on KU, or Pages, or any other thing, I'm damned if I know. The Calibre conversion was simply the icing on the rest of the cake.
Done here, since for some reason, I seem to be the guy in the Gary Larsen cartoon talking to the damned dog, or Charlie Brown's parents, take your pick.
