On 10/26/2020 at approximately 2:30pm I attempted to log in to my Amazon account. The log in page did not appear suspicious in any way. I entered my email address as I normally do and when I attempted to enter my password I received a message that my Amazon account had been blocked due to a suspicious purchase on my account. The message provided me with the following number to call to have my Amazon account unblocked, (833)528-0900. I called the number and a man with a heavy foreign accent told me that at 2:00am on Monday evening someone attempted to purchase an iPhoneX on my account. He directed me to hold down two keys on my computer, the control key and the letter "r" key. I did this and then he directed me to enter a string of letters. After entering a few letters I became suspicious and hung up on him. My grown kids advised me to turn off my computer and change my Amazon email address and password. They said that this scammer was trying to get me to allow remote access to my computer. Afterward, I discovered that the number I called was not associated with Amazon customer service in any way. I was fortunate not to lose any money or allow remote access to my computer, however, I was frighteningly close to falling for this scam. Please be careful.

The person with an Indian accent called my landline number to tell me someone in Ohio purchases a $120 gift card using my Amazon account information. They also advised they were calling on behalf of the Amazon security department. They asked that I use my mobile device to access the Apple App Store so that they may secure my IP address to put measures in place to secure my Amazon account was safe. I quickly accessed my bank account and told the man I did not see a pending purchase from Amazon although I did make a purchase 2 days prior to this call today. I hung up at this point.

I got a call from Alan who sounded like he was from Africa. He said he worked for Amazon. He said I had a Prime account, and my account would be charged $399.99 for Amazon Prime Account. Then he asked if I had a computer. I asked for the name on the account. He said he would give it to me if I would go to my computer. I agreed, he said the name on the account was mine. Then he said go to your computer, and cancel it. I said I don't have a computer. Then he accused me of lying.

Received call stating someone had accessed my Amazon account and had ordered an iPhone 10 and they were putting the order on hold to inquire whether I had ordered it. Then proceeded to ask for credit card information at which time I ended the call.

Received an automated call from the number listed above claiming that an apple ipone had been purchased for ~$1000 and addressed to Dayton, OH. Was rerouted to a foreign person on the other line stating he was from amazon and he verified my name. I told him my account had be closed for 3 weeks now and he immediately hung up. I called the number back that was on ID and a lady answered and said it was probably a robot call.

I was also contacted by someone else earlier in the day trying to scam me and say they were from social security.. I reported those calls to the OIG. Sounded like the same person who called.. same indian accents (not being racist, just stating facts).

Someone called and told me someone had made a purchase of a $120 amazon gift card on my account, then they said someone created an account using my information. I immediately sat down at my computer, checked my amazon account and credit card accounts, which had no activity on them. I then told the person on the other end of the phone that everything he said sounded like a scam. They then disconnected. I think Amazon should know someone is pretending to be their well known company.

I received a text message saying that my Amazon order has been shipped & to click on the provided link for canceling or for order status. I knew I hadn’t placed a recent order but to make sure my information wasn’t compromised, I avoided the text message & went online & simply logged into Amazon to confirm. I saw no recent orders so I knew that this was a scam. I do not store any credit or debit card numbers for any online ordering, I always use PayPal & I have alerts for all of my cards & PayPal as well so b/c I hadn’t received any payment alerts from those companies either, I also knew this text was a scam in that way as well. Be diligent & don’t fall for these scams!

I received a call from 7609521842 and someone claiming to be with Amazon saying that they're going to charge me $1096 to my account but I don't have an Amazon account. They said to call them back at 8889750911 so I can verify my information but no one ever answers that phone.

Received a voicemail from 833-312-0425 saying there’s a problem with my recent Amazon order #350631 and I needed to call to either approve or cancel the order. My Amazon order has seventeen digits and the six digits left on the voicemail are not part of it. I also could not find the number they called from as an Amazon phone number. I deleted the voicemail and didn’t call the bogus phone number.

They called to say they were from Amazon and to verify an unauthorized purchase on my account for $299.00, but when I called them back at 1-239-785-2065, as they provided, they wanted me to log into my account to and verify that this was a fraudulent purchase. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, they would not assist as I told them I thought this was a scam and I should not have to log into my account to verify anything. They hung up on me at that point.

I received a call from some one saying they were from Amazon. They went on to say that I had ordered an I-phone and there was a problem incurred with shipping it. They asked me to go on my computer and they would fix the problem. I refused to do such. There is NO doubt in my mind that this was a scam in the making. I told them to go to hell and hung up.

The scammer had a foreign accent and was a male.
