Tied to use my email to have something shipped to him and said he's amazon

They sent me a text message that reads, “ ALERT: Your balance will be debited $306.95 for your last order#124711 on AMAZ0N. In order to cancel this transaction, contact us on 18332060318 “ and made it seem like there was a purchase on my Amazon account, they asked for my email and asked me to download the Anydesk app for my phone. I’ve seen these kinds of scams before so I just messed with him and gave them false information the whole time.

Caller ID came up with the name ****** ******* with the phone #************* It was a canned voice saying over one thousand dollars had been charged to my Amazon account for an iPhone 11 & some other things. It then said if I had not ordered these things I should press 1 now. I pressed off. I then got my iPad out to check with my Amazon account. Nothing has been charged.

So they were definitely phishing except I don’t fall for that kind of stuff. So please get the word out to others who would think they should push 1 & then give out their information believing they are stopping the bad guys when they are actually setting themselves up to be cheated. Thank you.

Recorded message: stated that it was from Amazon. Suspicious activity had been flagged on my account. An order had been placed for a MacBook Pro and an iPhone. Gave option to press #1 & be connected to an agent if I had not placed order. Representative attempted to gain personal/sensitive information.

At first it was an automated message stating there was a new charge to my Amazon account in the amount of 1200 or so dollars. Then it said select one to refute these charges or two to confirm. After selecting one, the operator stated that it was for an Apple iPhone and gave me the listed number to call back as I said I needed to discuss with my husband.

I recieve a text that my Amazon account was $995.95 and to call if it was not me. I called, but hung up as i got nervous that it was a scam.

I got a call from Amazon and they said stuff had been ordered on my account. When I called them back they got access to my computer. They told me to go buy "a number one dummy card." I wasn't going to do it. They told me I'd get the $200 back. He said he would add $900 to the card.

I received a robo call from the above number. It said that there is an order on my Amazon account for an I Mac and phone and they are requesting verification. Push a number or hold for assistance. I immediately hung up and recorded the phone number. I then went to my Amazon account and reported the fraud.

I received a call from "Poland." I thought it would probably be someone asking for money, which could be an upcoming scam. When I answered, it was another call stating that an apple mac pro iPad and iPods had just been charged on my Amazon account for $1,500. "To cancel your order or to connect with a customer representative, please press 1." I hung up then. However on a call that went to my husband's phone which came from a local phone number, he did press "1" and the first thing the person asked him was, "I need your account number, please." He said, "No, if you know my account is being charged, then you know my account number." She denied it and continued to try, so he hung up.

An email from Amazon was rec’d on 3/9/2022 for a fraudulent purchase in the amt of 871.66 for an IPAD pro plus shipped to 14337 Blackburn St Livonia, Michigan #TRX717885. I clicked on the fraud number 18663125071 to dispute. Spoke with Stella Johnson AMZ1904 7472062448 who claimed they were in the Fraud dept of Amazon said my ID was hacked by foreign countries and in order to resolve have to use gift cards in high denominations to resolve. No Amazon store at my location was instructed to purchase Target or Apple gift cards. 3 @ 500.00 were purchased she wanted 6 and not to talk to anyone about this until it was resolved. Was assured Amazon’s billing dept would reimburse they have not. Contacted my bank who said that’s not how fraud and identity theft is resolve. My CC has been closed. Amazon acct has been closed.

I reported the same type of scam yesterday, but this is a new number and it is the same area code as our own phones. My husband received a call that there was a charge being placed on his Amazon account for $1,500.00 and said it was for an ipad pro and something else. If he wanted to cancel the transaction, push "1" and hold the line.

Got a text saying my purchase was confirmed by Amazon for a sofa set in the amount of $1763 will be debited from my car if not me call 833-316-2235. I called the number and told them they better not go through with the purchase, the guy said I had called Amazon I said I know then I told him if they go through with it I will turn them in to the bbb he then said we are the bbb. I just hung up then blocked the number and text.

My husband got a phone call from someone claiming to be from Amazon and telling him that someone was charging an item to his Amazon account. (He doesn't have an Amazon account.) I have also gotten 2-3 texts from someone (could be different numbers) at various times stating a charge was being posted to my Amazon account and they were verifying with me. Instructed to press on the highlighted web address. Did not press.

The man saying I ordered a I phone for 1,300 hundred from Amazon account

I got an automated call from Amazon saying a tablet and earbuds for $1000 were purchased on my Amazon Account, and to press one if you hadn't made the purchase. I pressed one. A man came on and said "Hello, you've reached Amazon. Your account shows you purchased a tablet and earbuds for $1,000." I said I don't have an Amazon account and hung up.

call from Amazon

Contacted via text message and looks like many ppl got this

Trying to extort 100.00 another 100.00$

For the same years service

Paid in full dec. 3 months later ask for another 100.00

The scams usually use banks or some sort of online purchasing website to lure you into thinking your package is delayed. It’s usually a funny looking message with many spelling errors that seem pretty obvious, and make you click a link that has nothing to do with what they’re inquiring about.

I received an email labeled from AMAZON, which should have been a red flag with everything being capitalized, but I did not notice it at the time as I was checking my emails on my cellphone, and I did not pay attention to the senders email address, (Another red flag). I noticed charges of up to $8000.00 in merchandise that did I did not purchase. I immediately called the number listed on the email (another red flag, I forgot about) and the scam began. It is crazy, because at the same time I am speaking with the fake agent, I am googling a Customer Service number for Amazon, with NO LUCK... I mean it was like looking for a needle in a haystack to contact Amazon. I digress... The fake agent proceeds, asks for the Order#, verify my info, not asking me anything yet, just verifying the hacked account (RED FLAG) if they have access to the account they can simply state what they see, the last 4 digits of the cards you have on file, and the last few items you ordered. Me not knowing that at the time, simply agreed to what she was seeing. The first thing that stood out, she asked for a verification security block I had on the account (my expiration date on my Credit Card), but I could not remember placing that, I hesitated at first but again she verified so much info at the time, I thought she was legit. Then she stated a credit card had indeed been opened in my name and she would block it and all the charges, and she would have to deactivate my account for 24 hours. She sent me a temporary password and told me she would have to transfer me to her manager for him to approve the BLOCK...Again meanwhile, I am looking at my Amazon account, I do not see the charges they state are made, but I assumed because they opened a credit card the charges would not show on my end...and the Credit Card they supposedly opened was not listed as any of the cards on my file...So I am confused and suspicious now. She has to hang me up and her manager has to call me back. She gives me the area code, to make sure I answer in case I think it is a SPAM call..Ok...they are covering their bases...AGAIN, mind you, I am on Amazon website and in order to speak with a customer service rep, you have to leave your phone number and someone will call you back, so I think the agent is legit. Its only when the manager calls that I am really suspicious. Jay Wilson is the name he gives, he does not ask for any personal info., he verifies the information the agent stated then proceeds to ask me if I login on different computer, cell phones or tablets. They were trying to pinpoint where the charger were being made from. Asked if I had ever been to Washington, Ohio, Mexico, China...No of course not, then he tell me he needs me to type CMD in my search bar on my desktop...WHY I ask, he states it is their protocol to place a block on the IP addresses and to see if there are any foreign websites using my computer to make the fraudulent charges. So I ask, can you just block the Credit card, close that credit card account and I will handle everything else...Yes he states but they have to block those IP foreign addresses. I am not comfortable typing that command into my computer, so he suggests I can go to an Amazon store and get a card that would block the websites using my info, mind you, there is no Amazon store near me, so he suggests a Walmart, Target or Dollar Store... I reluctantly type in the command, we see foreign IP addresses and he states I must purchase the card in order for them to block the IP addresses using my computer. (HUGE RED FLAG) PURCHASE a card, a card only he can tell me where to locate it inside the stores, because the workers are not famililar with the type of AMAZON RED card. Also, he can hold on the line while I run to the nearest Walmart (15 mins. away) or call him when I arrive in the parking lot....Now I know something is wrong and I feel so stupid and violated. I am wondering how much of my info do they really have on file and did I just unknowingly give them access to my computer. I tell the guy I will run to Walmart and call him back at the 1-206-627-3848 number listed on my phone that he verified was the way to reach him. In the meantime, I FINALLY locate an Amazon customer service number, and it took me through the ringers to speak to a LIVE customer service agent. I explained to her the situation and she stated it sounded like a SCAM, as I thought.. She sends me a code, like the other agent did and I changed my password, but she suggested I contact my Banking Institutions to be on the safe side. She said they may try to open an account in my name somewhere. I am Officially Pissed and I feel soooo violated...I admit I missed a lot of RED FLAGS, and did not trust my gut. I will admit Amazon must do a better job in displaying their Customer Service Number for their customers to reach them. I pray all is well and no actual harm has been done. I am looking into LIFELOCK now...
