Turned on my TV to watch a movie on Amazon Prime Video. There was a page on my TV that said I needed to enter a code. Not expecting anything wrong I entered the code. The next page said my code had been stolen, I had tried to enter it too many times, and several other options. Unfortunately, I did not write this number down. I called and was told that he, Daniel R, was a representative of Amazon. I explained the problem and was told that there was something wrong with my computer that was not allowing the Code to be entered. Like a fool I allowed them access to my lap top. They showed me all of the address, for the past two years, that were on my PC. He said that they were connected to my PC the same way that we were presently. He said Amazon would clean my computer for free, and they were offering a fire wall that would keep out trogons and all other infectious intrusions. I went along, choosing the seven year plan for, I think, $288. Someone else got on my computer and started, looked like, cleaning my computer. I had trouble with my credit card so this guy asked me to call the bank, he hung up while the other guy continued cleaning. At this time I called Amazon, and they told me that this wasn't them, Amazon. The phone started ringing incessantly, the Amazon guy told me not to answer and to turn off my PC as well as my TV. After I turned my PC back on, I noticed the scammers icon, I clicked on it, and got the name Daniel R. and the #J53LGENRS8DGOAJ. There was a box that asked, "Do you think this is a fraud?" Something like that, when I clicked this box the telephone stopped ringing and and they left my computer. This was one of the slickest scam operations I have ever experienced or have heard of.

I am reporting another scam call from Amazon. I answered the call on my home phone. It was a robocall. Charging my Amazon account around $400. Last time they called it was $799. I don't have an Amazon account. Wanted me to press a number. I did not press any numbers. States to call them back. This time it was a different number in my caller ID. 571-248-2360. I wanted to report the phone number.

Adult male with foreign accent called my land line and stated that Jackson Cooper from Rhode Island charged $399 on my Visa card. Asked me to call back him back at 1-909–308-2204. They asked for my email address so they could reverse the charge. I hung up.

I checked with my credit card company and there were no charges or pending charges from Amazon in that amount.

Got an email with a $6,191.49 bill. Got in contact with Amazon they said it wasn't from them to disregard it

I have been receiving robocalls from Amazon on my cell phone. The message stated we will be charging your account $200 for Amazon monthly membership. It said press one to speak with an operator. I pressed one. I asked the person that answered what the membership fee was for. She said it was for various discounts. I did not allow them to ask for money. I told them not to bother me. Take me off your calling list. The number in my caller ID was 209-667-2660. I do have Amazon Prime so I questioned this. They called again about billing my account $549. I pressed number one again to speak with a representative. He said it was for an Amazon i phone two. I called Amazon. They did not make the call. I did not pay any money or give any personal information.

Had message on my answering machine with phone number to call about an order I placed with Amazon. Called a foreign accent man John Wilson asked about an order I did not place 2 days ago from SC for head phones. Offered to help had me install task viewer on my computer then wanted the default user name and password. He assured me he was helping solve my fake order problem and was not happy I wouldn't give him the information. I told him I was done and calling Amazon. Amazon assured me no order had been placed and told me what my last order correctly was and that they didn't do business by calling my home but by email

A person with a heavy accent called to inform me that I had a bill for $32 and asked if I would like to cancel my subscription to Amazon Prime.I asked why the bill was so high.He couldn't answer that but told me to install an app called AnyDesk remote control.I did and opened it and got a security warning that I was about to turn over control of my device to another person. I told him about the warning and he assured me that it was completely safe.I said good bye and hung up.

Received 2 products from Amazon that I did not order. I initially received an email saying a gift was coming from Amazon. When the package arrive, the note from Amazon said "Enjoy your gift! From: (my real name)." The items were ink for a printer and sticky bra pads.

So again I tired to call Amazon with phone number 1-888280-4331 due to the wanted me to tell them the id information that shows they took the money from my account in error due to I do not have a membership with them what so ever. The guy told me I have to give them my e-mail address and account information and I explain nope not going to happen since they already have the information on file he then was telling me again that I must have given my account information out and I explained again how can I give out my account information when I do not have a account with you in the first time. He then laughed at me and transfer me to his supervisor and she did the same thing all over to me again but this time she just laughed at me and hung up. I have been dealing with this for that last three day started on 9/8/20 until today I am so sick of the way Amazon practice their business. I also was trying to tell them to stop sending me e-mail telling me they have a package waiting for me to pick up and I just delete them right away since I know I do know have an account with them and I did not order nothing from them, Only to be told them have the right to send and do what ever they want.

I was emailed that I purchase a product on amazon that I didn’t purchase. There was a customer service # I called they said it was internet scammers from 3 different countries. Told me to go to Walmart or another store for a card to help block them by growing them off. To make a long story short, things went from 3hrs to 2 days of conversations and call backs. Oh and now I know they made it look like they scanned my computer and found a trogon that infected my computer. Now I know they used my own scanner on my computer. Luck so far no money was lost.

I received a phone call this morning using my local area code and answered it thinking it could be potential job. It was a recorded message about an Amazon order for hundreds of dollars. I called customer service to check my account. Don't fall for it, Amazon will send you and email about your orders, they told me they would never call.

Message left on answering machine saying my “visa was charged $77.97 for purchase of a pair of Nike shoes & lipstick from amazon.com. If you made this purchase, just hang up and your order will be shipped to you. If you did not make this purchase, call 425-358-2746.” Received exact same message in July. Did not call the number they left either time.

individual said they were from Amazon and my account had a bunch of charges made on it from Ohio. He said I needed to get on my computer and so I thought he would have me check my amazon account, which is what I did and there were no charges that I hadn't made.. He wanted me to go to www.helpme.net, I said no, give me your number and I'll call back. He hung up immediately.

Received a call saying that there was a suspicious charge on my Amazon account, connect to representative if I did not make the charge. "Agent" was able to provide my first name and said that I had a $700+ charge for an iphone X. I told the agent that I was very concerned and asked which Amazon account had the fraud. The agent disconnected the call. I have a login with Amazon, but I do not have any credit with them. I believe this call to be fraudulent with the intent to collect personal information.

The scammer said his name was Allen Johnson from Amazon. He was the senior supervisor and he was also calling on behalf of the BBB. He informed me that my visa account had been charged $279.00, and he wanted me to get on my laptop, so he could show all the scams that have been taking place. When I asked him to please repeat his name and where he was calling from, he got irate and said if I didn’t want to cooperate with him, by accessing certain features on my laptop, then my Visa card will be charged $279.00, then he hung up on me.
