A guy named Max called my husband's phone, which never rang, and left a voicemail. The voicemail said, "hi Max here calling about the application you submitted for the work from home opportunity with Amazon. Please complete your application and learn how you can earn up to $3,000-$6,000 per month using your computer with Amazon. The website to finish your application is amazondatajobs.org". The thing is, my husband never filled out any applications to work from home.

Person texted us saying they were Amazon and that fraud had been detected on our amazon account. we called back and gave our debit card number because "Amazon" said they needed it to fix the situation. Instead the person stole $2400 from us. They answered the phone as amazon and even sent us emails with Amazon's logo.

Received an email from "@amazonhelpline" stating that someone from Dayton, Ohio was trying to reset my password. The email wanted me to call 1-888-569-2835 to provide account details.

When checking my local weather on my mobile phone I was interrupted by an Amazon "Quiz" that promised 1 of 3 prizes. A new I phone, a new Samsung Galaxy, or a 1000.00 gift card. This was the second time I have gotten this pop up. You needed to answer 3 questions and if you were correct the three aforementioned prizes popped up but we're obscured by treasure chests. Once you chose a chest your "prize" was revealed. Then you had to agree to these obscure and non closing terms..... essentially forcing you to spend money on Amazon over several months with rules meant to message you up. I have Amazon prime and just paid them almost 100.00 for the privilege. I am now cancelling all business with them. Just to complain to them by phone you were asked to log in and pay for the phone number. Are you kidding?

I was using the Internet and a window popped up saying that Amazon chooses 10 members every Sunday to give $1000. Choose either an iPhone, a galaxy or ....

Once I saw the address had nothing to do with Amazon, I didn’t go further.

This scammer contacted me about a fake order that I didn't even make. It promises to compensate me $50 if I take a short survey, but I know this is a scam because this is not from the official Amazon email address.

- Riverton, UT, USA

A person called claiming to be from Amazon wanting to confirm my address. Next thing I know Amazon is confirming a purchase for almost $400 that I did not order. I quickly called Amazon and our credit card company to report the scam and get our accounts cleared.

I Got this email -- and I knew something was up -- I do not HAVE an Amazon account -- searching the phone number proved it was a scam.

Amazon takes your account security very seriously. Amazon will never email you and ask you to disclose or verify your Amazon password, credit card, or banking account number.. If you receive a suspicious email with a link to update your account information, do not click on the link—instead, report the email to Amazon for investigation.

We hope to see you again soon.

You call them for customer service reference refunds and they take money out of your account. THEY DO NOT BELONG TO AMAZON

The internet messaging indicated I owed $62.00 for a game I was said to have ordered from Amazon to Facebook.com. The game was [email protected]. I had 180 days to dispute this charge in the resolution center to get full refund, I have the email and would forward it to you if you desired. I did not click on any link.

On 5/5/2017-I received the following message on my email address

''Did you forget? Your $50 Amazon Reward Is Waiting

''

- Alpharetta, GA, USA

This scam starts with a vehicle for sale well below market price, where the seller used a personal tragedy (husbands death) to try and explain why they were selling it so cheap. They just moved out of state so they are using Amazon to help sell the vehicle. They provided a document (PDF) with lots of Amazon logo's and copyright material and the title was "Amazon Purchase Protection" with a case "ID". Then this is where the scam became very clear. The payment is made "secure" buy purchasing Amazon gift cards with cash in $500 increments. No credit or debit cards are allowed to avoid making any "mistakes". Then you call their 800# for Amazon Support (888-273-8645) to "confirm" your payment. Then... "Upon payment verification, Amazon starts the shipping process. Amazon verifies that the buyer receives the item. The inspection period begins once the item is delivered.

To protect you against the risk of liability, Amazon holds the buyer's funds pursuant to the terms of the Amazon Purchase Protection Service Policy, and any other agreement entered between Amazon and its customers. When payment is received, it will be verified and secured into a non-interest bearing trust account. After payment is secured, Amazon ships the item to the buyer.

Amazon's Payment Guarantee Policy is a unique benefit that offers you protection from unwarranted refunds, allowing you to accept more high risk orders. For all eligible transactions, we will completely reimburse you for any refunds resulting from claims of unauthorized purchases and non-receipt of goods."

But once they have your gift card #'s the deal is done and you are out of your money. There is no car and never was one.

the scammer said they was going to sell a 2013 kia optima sx for $2900.00 if I send the money the car would be shipped in 4days for free if I didn't wont the car I can send it back and get my money so the car never came so they email me and said that I would have to send $2000.00 more dollars because they cant ship the car without any insurance that's when I realise it was a scam

- Jacksonville, FL, USA

I contacted who I thought was Amazon by phone about a product I was interested in purchasing. I called the number 866-281-0333. As a was speaking to the "Amazon" representative another person came on the line and said that were were on a three way call with Amazon. That person identified himself as a Mr. David D. Miller and offered to sell me a security system for my computer. I told him no but somehow he gained access to my computer anyway. He kept asking me if I did any online banking and what type of websites I liked to visit. I He put these little green locks all over my desktop and now I can no longer use my computer. They are now calling me and threatening legal action if I don't pay them $1500 for the software they installed on my computer.

This morning I received an e-mail from Amazon thanking me for purchasing an expensive chandelier with a delivery address in England.

I hit reply and sent them a return e mail telling them that I had not purchased anything from Amazon. Upon closer examination I saw there was a special button to click if this was not my order. I decided NOT to press the button and just figured it was some kind of a scam.
