NEW AMAZON PHISHING EMAILS


Recently GDS has received a couple of emails from Amazon.com. Now being where I am, I don't deal with Amazon.com, so alarm bells rang and coupled with several other suspicious traits, it was clear these were PHISHING emails. Fortunately this was from a 'Junk' account I keep (for signing up to odd sites with something that looks interesting but requires subscription). The account needless to say attracts all sorts of rubbish, porn, viagra, loans etc.. I digress, the purpose of this item is to show the emails entitled
email 1 'Amazon.com - Your Cancellation (nn-nnn-nnn)'
AND
email 2 'Amazon.com - Your Cancellation (nn-nnn-nnn)'
Below is the response I received from Amazon on a chat line
You are now connected to Goutham from Amazon.com. Title:Spam emails
Me:Hi
Goutham:Hello, my name is Goutham. I'll be glad to help you today.
Me:I have received several emails supposedly from you with the title Order Cancelled Are you aware of this email
Goutham:The e-mail you received wasn't from Amazon.com.
We recommend that you delete the e-mail. For your protection, do not respond to it, and do not open any attachments or click any links it contains.
We also recommend running anti-virus or anti-malware software whenever you receive a suspicious e-mail, especially if you opened an attachment or visited a web site that was linked in the e-mail.
Me:I shall tell my clients and post it on my website Thank You for your help Goutham . So there you have it, DELETE THE EMAIL AND WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T CLICK ON THE NUMBER LINK (The Underlined 38-839-388 type number) OR YOU WILL BE SORRY
