- San Benito, TX, USA

Call was made to verify an Amazon order, when I told them it was not my order they try to help me by transferring my call to a department and there they wanted my account number when I told them I didn’t trust them asking that they hang up. My phone doesn’t register the phone numbers don’t know why it’s a iPhone 13/14 and don’t know how to find them to report them.

Emma called me from Amazon and I thought connected to Amazon, but not true.

Used their name and then contacted by Aaron who seemed ok. Send them $2650.00.

However then they put me on to their "money Man" their term who demanded more money for trademark without showing paper. Wanted money.

I contacted lawyer who found out it was a scam.

- Germantown, NY, USA

Caller (from restricted number) identified himself as Amazon employee and wanted me to verify a $1499 mac computer purchase and asked me to verify my name, which he knew, and I verified. English was not his first language. I told him the purchase was not me and to not let it go through. He continued to ask increasingly personal questions, and I just told him again to block the purchase. He then listed four or five banks and asked if one was mine. I told him no (stupid on my part) and he then asked what bank I used. I then hung up and called my credit card company and asked for a new card.

- Springfield, IL, USA

I got a phone call that I let go to voice mail and the message they left starts off as 10 seconds of elevator music and then a feminine computer voice that says "Amazon this call is to authorize the payment of $1,499 for the recent order of Apple MacBook Pro on your Amazon account. If you do not authorize this payment, please press one to speak to our customer support representative."

Instead of calling them back I checked my and my families Amazon accounts to ensure there was no such purchase and I called my banks to check for pending transactions and seeing as I did not have one, I left the number alone.

They said they were Amazon about a pre authorized purchase I made and wanted to know if I was Vicki. I said yes and they hung up.

- Morrisville, NC, USA

I received a message on my mobile from an automated system that purported to be Amazon, trying to confirm if an order for $1,499 for an Apple MacBook Pro on my Amazon account was valid. It prompted me to press '1' if the answer was No. I did not press anything. I looked up Amazon scams and found I was not the only one to receive this call or message. Immediately deleted the voicemail.

Said he was from Amazon Fraud Department. Told me that there were three accounts under my name and wanted me to confirm that. I denied having 3 accounts Told me that one of these accounts made one purchase for $8,500 and other smaller ones and wanted me to confirm them. I denied the purchases. Asked me to confirm a few addresses where I sent Amazon packages and a couple were correct. Told me that they tried to email me but that the scammers probably re routed the Amazon emails with the alerts. Asked me to confirm my name, address and email which unfortunately I confirmed. Read the last 4 digits of the credit cards used for the suspicious transactions and none of these belonged to me. Did not ask for passwords, credit cards numbers or any more personal information. Just wanted to confirm my name, address and email.

Hi, the scammer used my name on Amazon.com website and changed my email address and phone number after I tried returning the ink cartridges. He stole $47.88, and I am working with credit card company Citibank to get the $4,500 back. He tried to use all my credit cards to take a total of $14,000, but was able to stop the $9,500. Some how he got to take $4500 from my Citi card. I had to cancel all my cards and he hacked into my "Shop" App to add his Wisconsin address to ship this bike purchased he made.

Amazon cannot fix this issue at all. They keep saying they will email the accountant (no phone number) and have to wait 24-48 hours. At one point they said they deleted his information, then found out today that he managed to change the email address back to his own with his phone number. When I was able to change my password it would always stop me at Two way authentication. Amazon asked me to send my license to prove which I did but nothing. Amazon even told me to download the authentication app to get the code and when I did, nothing. They kept me on the phone about an hour or two only to say the same thing I have to email the accountant and have to wait 24-48 hours. Even someone at Amazon would hang up on me cause they couldn't resolve it and one told me they found no suspicious activity when another said they did. I almost feel like the scammer works for Amazon. I am just mind blown how a billion dollar company can't have a better security system in place. I am at a loose for words.

And this all happened beginning on September 9th.

I no longer have an Amazon account and I longer want to be part of them, but I don't want this happening to anyone else. So if this email would help which I hope it does and for myself that would make me happy.

Person called said they were with amazon, said a new account was opened in my name asked if I had any knowledge of that. I replied no, they said account has $1500. on it. I said I have no knowledge of that. He then said and I am speaking with (and said my name) I replied yes. I contacted amazon right away.

- Portland, OR, USA

I received a phone call from someone claiming to work with Amazon about a computer that had been purchased and was waiting to ship it to New York. They asked if I made the purchase, I said "No", they then asked if I was **** *********, I said "yes" and they hung up. So they have my name, phone number, and a recording of me saying "yes".

Scammer called to say there was a suspicious purchase of an iPhone on my Amazon account worth $790. They said they put a hold on my account until I confirmed the purchase. They wanted me to press 1 to speak with someone or 2 to decline purchase. I just hung up and blocked the number. Funny thing is, the amazon account is under my husbands name not mine.
