Amazon Imposter Reports & Reviews (1405)

Called and said they were Amazon and that several new Amazon accounts were opened in my name. They knew my name. Said $3000 worth of Apple computers were ordered for delivery to the 4900 block of Arcadia in Albany NY and was I in NY or NJ, etc. I did give them my real delivery zip code but hung up on them. Called real Amazon and took steps to make sure they could not access my account.

RECEIVED several times automated call states that i have a pending purchase of an Apple I phone and E Buds going to be charged to my Amazon account good thing i don,t have an Amazon account Ha Ha

I received a phone call from Amazon. They needed approval for payment of $1500. I do not have an account with Amazon. There was a charge with my name. Asked for banking information. I did not provide any personal information. I had recently provided my credit card information to a local beauty salon for service. Then I received this phone call. This concerned me. I called and cancelled my credit card. I do not have the phone number that called.

I keep on receiving a call stating an Amazon purchase of $1,000 and if I don't authorize it to press 1.

The message says we cannot complete your order without your updated information

I have had someone call stating they are from Amazon customer service stating they have a package to deliver to me and wanted to verify my name, phone, address and debit card information.

I do not have an Amazon account but I received a call telling me there was a $1500.00 purchase on my account for an iPad. They tell me it will be delivered the following day but if I did not make this purchase to press 1 to speak to someone. I pressed one and the agent asked for my name. I told her "Don't you have my name?" She provided my name and address. She then told me she could help me with theft since someone is using my information. She asked for the name of the bank I use but I hung up on her because I did not want to provide that information.

I have received several phone calls in the last few weeks, supposedly from Amazon. Caller ID only shows "British Columbia", so most times I ignore the call. A few times I answered the call and it was a recorded message, telling me to press a number to be connected to Amazon about my "account" (I don't have an Amazon account). Today, August 15, 2022 about 8:15am, I received one of these calls on my cell phone. I answered the call and a recorded message said I owed Amazon $900+, and told me to press a number to be connected to Amazon. I hung up.

A robot is on the other end saying they are from Amazon and want to confirm a purchase of an expensive item. They ask to press 1 to report that you did not purchase this item.

They asked for my name and zip code and then hung up.

I just learned that Amazon Never calls you. they always email. Calls on behalf of amazon are not calls from Amazon.

Scammer said my Amazon account had been frozen and will be terminated in 24 hours if I do not respond. Of course my account is active and there are no problems

said I made a $791 purchase of Dyson Tower Air Purifier and to call this number 805-250-7530, They tried to get me load a remote control program. I hung up. No charge had been made on my account.

They claim I have a charge for an Apple phone from Amazon.

I received a call yesterday on my cell phone claiming to be from Amazon. It came from California. Phone number 405-745-0789. It was a robocall. It stated press one if I did not approve a purchase of $1400. I pressed number one. It sent me to a call center. A woman answered. Amazon something center. I could not understand the second word. She asked if I had an Amazon account. I said no. That is when /i knew it was a scam. I played along. She said someone opened an Amazon account in my name. Purchased a laptop. To close my account she would have to forward me to the Department of Treasury. She transferred me to another call center. A man answered united States Department of Treasury. Gave their address on Pennsylvania Ave. $8000 in purchases on my Amazon account. It went from $8000 to $1.5 million. My house and personal assets would be frozen for nine years. Money wired from Texas to foreign country. account. Did not ask for money or personal information. I received a second call from 714-441-8310. Same type of call.

If anyone asks you to log on to your computer remotely, it's a scam!!!!

Ask them questions that only an Amazon representative would know - don't share any info, ask them questions

Initial scam was an email saying a laptop had been ordered on my Amazon account. I called the number listed in the email. They were responsive and wanted to reimburse me. Directed me to log on to a website “better business bureau”. Read the ways they were designed to protect customers, etc. indicated they were going to immediately transfer the money back into my account. The “Amazon Business Manager” walking me through the steps and navigating me through asked me to put amount of return. A wrong amount was entered. Instead of $500; it was $5,000. Said that it could be perceived as I was attempted to fraud the ScamPulse.com so he would contact the ScamPulse.com to see if we could transfer the money back. Again he was navigating the email then had me log in to my bank account then said as we were trying to resolve the 5k issue and additional 2k was transferred and we would need to transfer 7k back to the ScamPulse.com branch. Needless to say, I listened to him, I could see the 5k, then the 2k transferred into my account so I wanted to return the 7k. I authorized ignorantly the transfer of the funds. They told me what to say to the bank teller, told me not to log on as the transfer needed to be resolved so there would be no criminal or legal action against me. They advised me not to talk with anyone.

Expenses didn’t clear. I called the bank. I was left with $350.00 in my account. The transfer was complete. I authorized them to steal $7,000.00.

Answered an incoming call from an unfamiliar number. My business involves out of state calls coming in. The message heard claimed they were checking on a possible fraudulent activity on my Amazon account. for $1000.00+ for iphone etc.

I called back the number. A foreign voice answered. I said my name and that I'd received a call about an iPhone charge I'd never made. Suddenly I realized there was "dead air." I proceeded to call my bank to report this as I'd realized it was a probable scam. And I wanted to check my account.

I was informed this is a scam and they were helping another customer with what I'd had attempted. At present, they had lost approx $20,000. Tragic.

Beware if you receive a call or contact claiming to be Amazon telling you to send them money using gift cards etc. for products etc you did not order. Report it immediately.

I was called on 7/22/2022 by a person claiming to be from Amazon. They left a message stating that $1,499.00 had been charged to my account and it looked like fraudulent activity. When I called back the number (510-721-4802) I told them why I was calling, gave the man the amount of money and he hung up. I called back and got the same person and when I asked why he had hung up on me, he asked for my name. When I told him I wouldn't give him my name he hung up on me again.

I do not even have an Amazon account and don't buy online.
