Amazon Store Card Scam!

I feel pretty savvy about internet scams but apparently someone has infiltrated my laptop and my email and I don't know what else. I even had a fraudulent charge on my credit card (first time ever). I'm busy changing passwords lately now that I have everything straightened out. Thanks for the heads up!

Scams are all over my friend. I see that a lot in my email. Glad you don;t fall for them too.

I never received that but thanks for the heads up!

I don't shop online anymore. Though, when I shop online, I pay cash on delivery not through credit card. I don't want exposing my credit card online.

Hopefully more people are aware of these scams than in former decades, I recall someone scamming mom via the phone back in the 1990s. So many crooks out there lookin for easy money, karma will kick em in the butt when they least expect it.

Lol Good one. I get the phone ones and we mess with them. The longer you keep them on the phone wasting their time the less time they have to scam others who don't know better. Got one a few days ago and I pissed them off and it was funny we were all laughing. Sir we are calling because we have been monitoring your credit activity and gave me the whole speech that they give and how they are here to help. He then asked me how much debt I have and what size loan I was needing? I told him I don't know how much can I get. He said something ridiculous like up to $100,000. Sir how much debt do you have? Oh I don't know. Sir how am I supposed to help you if you don't know how much debt you have? Wait a minute I thought you said you have been monitoring my credit? Yes sir that is why we called you. Well if you called me and you have been monitoring my credit you should know how much debt I have can't you look it up? Sir this is serious I am trying to help you! I did that for a few more minutes until he got so mad he hung up on me.

I don't fall prey to those scams. I know many who do though. A fool and his money are soon parted.

hmmm, I get alot of suspicious emails. Generally I can spot scams though..so far so good!

Amazon have their own style just as many other sites such as paypal, etc. We just have to keep a watch.

Oh yes I have seen that one any number of times in my email, shame on them.

So far this past few days I have not received that kind of emails. I usually read the email first. But even that is even dangerous.

I get lots of weird ones and don't open them...I was fooled once years ago and got a virus.

There are too many scams out there.

It is funny what people try. I keep getting ones from Prince so and so from this or that place who wants to give me X number millions .... I just have to give him my bank account number

I got talked into something over the phone...$100 walmart card for just $4.95 shipping. Got the info in the mail and it was bogus bogus bogus. It was for every $100 you spent at Walmart and sent in the receipts they would send you a $10 Walmart card and you had a year to do it. Then suddenly I was signed up for a dozen other things.....I had to make a ton of phone calls to get all of it stopped.

Hopefully people are smart enough not to give their personal information out unless they're absolutely sure who they're dealing with.

Yep, scams are everywhere these days. Let us all beware.

I never fall for any of those scams.

At least we are pretty savvy to spot scams. It's a shame so many are not.

Whoever is behind those scams must think we're really that stupid.
