Beware Of The Amazon.com Scam

July 23, 2010 by Chuck | 0 Comments

Here’s another phishing scam you want to protect against.

The Better Business Bureau (BBB) has received reports recently of emails, appearing to come from Amazon.com customer service, with the subject line “Thank you for your order.” The message contains the Amazon.com logo and looks legitimate in other ways, at least on the surface.

Anyone who clicks on the link would be sent to a fake site where an attempt would be made to steal his or her personal information, including, but not limited to, debit card numbers, bank account information, and sensitive passwords.

If you didn’t order something from Amazon recently and you get such an email, go to AMAZON directly. A real site like Amazon won’t ask you for your Social Security Number!
