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.

I received a message on my home answering machine. Beginning of the message cut off. Could not hear the entire message. Amazon. 99 cents. If you placed this order on your credit card, you do not have to call us back. If I did not place order call them back at 810-212-0143. I did not call the number back. I do not do business with Amazon. I never placed an order. I know did the right thing not to call them back. If I don't recognize the number I don't answer. My caller ID showed my own name and number. I contacted Amazon. I was told they don't call. Sounds like a phishing scam.

Got an email that was for an order that was purchased to my amazon account.

I called the number on the email.

Talked to someone that said they cancelled the order but found a bunch of hackers to this account . . . some from US and some from overseas (China and Russia)

I believed them because my daughter is on tick tock and buys a lot of stuff from websites all over.

They said I needed to purchase an Amazon purple gift cards from a list of stores so they can use it to track the hackers.

I went to Rite aid first which didn't have any of the "Purple" Amazon gift cards. They said I could get a google play one but it needed to be for at least $200 which they would automatically refund and it would show in my account with 24 to 48 hours.

I did that, and had to give them the trans action number of the receipt along with the card info.

They did that then said they closed out all of the hackers but the ones from overseas. Can't believe I didn't catch on from there.

Then I proceeded to purchase two more cards . . . one from Best buy and one from Walgreens . . . both for $500 each.

After the 2nd one, I started questioning the guy who said his name was Alan. I told him to hold on the line so I can call Amazon and confirm . . . he said OK . .. gave me his extension and name and he would hold while I called them. Stupid me believed him figuring if he was giving me his name and extension along with holding that he must be legit.

Then I got home and he said they still couldn't find the last hacking from China and wanted me to go out and buy $400 worth of Ebay cards. Then I knew it was all a scam. I freaked out on him and he got mad telling me I was insulting him. I can't believe I didn't figure it out after the first one.

Now I am out $1200. We work so hard for our money . . . and there's people like this out there that have no problems stealing from others. Now I don't have enough to pay my mortgage and/or my daughters tuition for this month. I have reported this to the FTC, my bank, the stores that I purchased the cards from. If there is anyway anyone can compensate me it would be greatly appreciated . . . and if not, at least CATCH THESE [censored]TY PEOPLE . . . it's just so upsetting . . . and worse on how stupid I feel for falling for it 3 times.

I'm calling to report a scam call I just received a my home phone. It was a recording. They were from Amazon. Going to charge my account $1200 for a phone I ordered. I have never ordered anything from Amazon. The recording stated to press a number to confirm or cancel the order. It disconnected before I could press a number. I called Amazon to make sure they don't have a record of anything. The phone number in my caller Id was 216-873-9030. I tried to call the phone number back. Of course it said the number cannot be completed as dialed.

I answered a scam call on my cell phone. The same call came in last Friday and Saturday. At first it was a recording. My Amazon account has been compromised. I pressed a number to speak with someone. A man came on the line. He said my Amazon account was compromised. He asked me if I had a laptop. I said no. Then he wanted to know if I was on a smart phone. I said yes. He said you can go to Google. I said I'm not doing that. I hung up. They called from two different phone numbers. I answered the calls because the phone numbers were similar to mine. The numbers in my caller ID were 216-324-7379 and 216-324-3951.

I just received a scam message on my cell phone. If my cell phone does not recognize the number, it will not ring through. It was a recorded message supposedly from Amazon. I could barely hear it. Something about $99 for services. Press one to speak with an Amazon Service Manager. I did not press one or call the number back. I already have Amazon Prime. The phone number in my caller ID was 567-244-0776 Norwalk, OH.

I received an e-mail from what appeared to be Amazon, notifying me that my order had been processed. I didn't order anything from Amazon in almost a year, and I never ordered the item that showed up on my doorstep. I received follow up e-mails that my order was shipped, a survey on my experience, and the final one stating that my payment was denied and demanded payment. They asked for the last two digits of my credit card number. I haven't responded to any of these e-mails, but it is completely fraudulent. There are several e-mails associated with this scam.

Message left on my answering machine reporting that Amazon had a charge on my credit card for an amount which I did not recognize. If I did recognize the charge I am instructed to just hang up and the item would be delivered, however, if I did not recognize the charge I was asked to call 4, 2, 4, 2, 5, 5, 5, 0, 8, 4.

I went through Amazon customer support and the a representative stated that it is a scam. Amazon does not call customers unless you go to Amazon's website and ask for them to call you. Someone is trying to get your personal information.

Receive email supposedly from Amazon.com that a purchase was made that we did not do. They said I needed to go to the grocery store and get a 200.00 Google play card that would verify our location and then they could block all the un-authorized purchases and the card I used would be re-imbursed and when they said they now needed a 500.00 security card (Gift card) I got suspicious and called Amazon and found out it was a scam.
