Amazon Survey Scam Targets Trusting Customers
Phishing Scams, Fake Logins, and Loyalty Programs Used
Beware of Scam Emails and Calls Demanding Personal Information
A new scam is targeting Amazon customers, exploiting their inherent trust in the retail giant. The Amazon Survey Scam uses phishing emails and fake login prompts to trick users into revealing their personal information.
Phishing emails appear legitimate, purporting to be from Amazon and requesting participation in surveys or promotions. They often contain links to fake login pages that look almost identical to the real Amazon website.
Another common scam involves the Amazon Loyalty Program. Scammers send emails or make phone calls claiming to offer exclusive discounts or rewards for joining the program. Victims who provide their personal information can become vulnerable to identity theft.
It's important to note that while Amazon may make outbound calls to customers, they will never ask for sensitive information such as passwords or credit card numbers.
Customers are advised to remain vigilant and to be suspicious of any unsolicited emails, calls, or messages that request personal information. If unsure about the legitimacy of a communication, it's best to contact Amazon directly through the official website or customer service hotline.
