I received this text, on 4/23/23 on or about 1630, "The Shipping of your WANBO TT Portable Projector Netflix-Certified, $399 has been charged from your card.Not you? Call us: +18773057299" from (347)-394-5354. I called the number mentioned in the body of the text. The recipient of the call identified himself as an Amazon Employee named "Joy Connor" with employee number "AMAZ9546". I told him that I didn't order the product. He(Joy) asked if I had received a refund. I told him not that I was aware if I had. He instructed me to login into my financial institution account to see if I had. I informed him that I had not. He asked me if I had Zelle, and asked me to activate it in my bank account. I informed him that I could barely understand him given his heavy accent and loud background noise. He instructed me to download the application, "Any Desk", to my device. I did, not knowing, he would have control of my device. I noticed some onscreen activity that looked like he was withdrawing funds from account, and asked him about it. He said he wasn't and continued investigating the incident surrounding the purchase. An onscreen notification, appeared onscreen, advising that I had reached my daily withdrawal limit of $500. Two names, "Jiaming Chen" and "David Abuga", appeared onscreen while he was investigating the incidentHe stated he would have to call me back, the next morning, as he couldn't complete the investigation at the time. I received an email from CU asking if I had authorized "Jiaming Chen" access to my account. I realized then that I was the victim of a scam. I removed the "Any Desk" app, changed my online banking and Amazon passwords, deleted credit card info from my Amazon account, and purposely entered incorrect login info to freeze my accounts. My bank account was closed and a new account was opened. The scammer, was true to his word, and attempted to contact me the following morning. His attempts went unanswered!

Other numbers used, by the scammer, were (206)426-5917 and (325)550-6511.

I received a text from Amazon saying that someone from North Carolina logged into my account.

Consumer went online looking for a phone number to call Amazon as he was looking to get a "primetime TV program" and wanted to open an account with Amazon. The number that he called was not for the real Amazon and they wanted him to go and buy a $300 gift card. The consumer did buy the gift card and gave the number over the phone.

I thought I was purchasing a box of unclaimed packages from Amazon. The advertisement had the Amazon logo and seemed legitimate and I thought $9.95 was a good deal. Looked at my bank statement two days later and was shocked to see two charges of $9.95 and two charges of $149.00 from a company called Genglow, TX. Found Genglow website but it only had a chat service, so I stated what had occurred and waited. Eventually I was told, sorry for the inconvenience and they would forward this issue to the accounting department. After waiting several hours, I told them that if I didn’t get some satisfaction I would report them to the BBB. The accounting department finally told me that only subscription fees would be processed and I replied you false advertised and I didn’t want a subscription. I have sent several messages through their chat service but received no reply. My bank had a phone number that I called, but it was not the Genglow company. So, they were obviously using a false number, also. That number is 800-485-5671.

Scammer impersonated an Amazon customer service agent. It seems they are stationed in India. When I searched on Google for Amazon customer service their number was the first to come up. First, they asked for my name and what my problem was then proceeded to tell me to download the app Anydesk. They then ask for the address number and requested to access

my phone remotely that is when I realized it was a scam. I quickly declined their request to access my phone and proceed to hang up and delete the app right before they could actually do any damage.

Started with a phone call stating that someone was trying to purchase a phone on my amazon account and they needed to set up traps, The person Dhruv Malik id number CVE-2011-452 stated he was setting up traps to stop hacking into my account. Then he wanted to set up a trap to my mom's checking account he was trying to purchase a $850 american express card stating my mom's account would not be charged. When I refused to give him any information he stated cussing me and put porn up on my computer. The so called traps he placed on my amazon account has been refunded.

I received an email that looked like it came from Amazon. It read, Thank you for your recent purchase. Please leave a review."

As I scrolled down to see the picture of the item purchased, I noticed I did not purchase it.

I checked my Amazon account to make sure someone hadn't hacked into my account and bought that item, but I did not see it in my order history.

I deleted the email.

My wife had a call from someone that said they were with Amazon and that someone had created an account in her name and purchased an Apple IPad. Asked for personal info but would not give any details of how the item was purchased. Called the number back and get nothing. Definitely a scam.

- Meadville, PA, USA

phone calls on my cell that pretend to be Amazon and telling me my order is being sent. I called them back and a person with an east indian accent told me that I had to change my number in order to stop receiving calls. When I stated that I was going to call the ScamPulse.com and asked for his address he said 4152 **** *** !

Thanks, for responding I need to get an Amazon E-gift card for my friend. It’s her birthday today. I tried purchasing them myself but my card got declined. Could you get them on Amazon and have them sent to her email address? Let me know so I can provide you with her email address and we reimburse you for the money spent.

Love,

John

Thanks so much, You can have it done via https://www.amazon.com/Amazon-eGift-Card-Logo/dp/B07PCMWTSG/ref=sr_1_2?qid=.Tota... amount needed is $200 here is her address ([email protected]) Lastly make sure the delivery date is Now and I want you to write Happy Birthday in the message space.

Love,

John

Thank you once again. I really appreciate your assistance but, unfortunately there seems to be a problem now. My other niece saw the gift cards on her phone. Got jealous and demanded for hers. Could you please purchase an extra $200 which would be $400 in total. I’ll pay back in any preferred way you want me to. I'll like you to send the cards to my niece email just like you did the first method, cause i have already told her you'll be the one sending the cards from your end!!

Await your soonest response.

Love,

John
