Amazon Imposter Reports & Reviews – Page 10 (1466)

Scam began with a phone call from a female, identifying as "Amazon Security", reporting a suspicious transaction on my account (I had made some Amazon purchases in the recent past so the call seemed plausible). I was then passed to female identifying as "Nancy," "Head of Amazon Security," relating that the suspicious transaction was part of an investigation, underway with the Department of Justice. I was then "transferred" to a male, identifying as "David White," a supposed officer of the Department of Justice. "Officer David White" then proceeded to keep me on the phone, gathering personal information for the supposed purposes of "the department's investigation into this "case" of identity theft and money laundering. I was scammed into withdrawing $10,000 dollars from my bank (two separate branches), concealing it in a small box and placing it through the back window, onto the back seat of a car that arrived in my driveway at night. This car was allegedly an unmarked police vehicle, driven by a supposed plain-clothed police officer. The money was allegedly supposed to clear my identity from the investigation, once verified by the "Department of Justice" as "clean" money, as a vital part of the "investigation" whereupon it would be returned to me in full by the same plain-clothed officer, by 10:00am the following morning. After delivering the money (in the box) and returning to the phone, the caller, David White, had gone and I could not connect with him, that I knew I had been victimized.

The scammer said the call is being recorded and asked me if I can hear them. I got scammed because I said yes! It was supposed to be an Amazon phone number but I found out it is not associated with Amazon.

The personal information I lost so far is my phone number.

Ct NY I don’t know who’s address that is and he had access to accounts linked up to my Amazon account so they did have my banking information. I called the bank to let them know what’s going on.

Scammer called left message in voice mail about having to confirm an order that I had made for 1500 us dollars but did not identify the company they were calling from. I called the number back later and a person answered then you hear a recording of someone identifying them self as an Amazon customer service agent then you get transfer immediately to someone live with a similar voice but clearly not the same person with a foreign accent either (Indian, Asian, African or Jamaican) and they start asking (phishing) for your personal information such as date of birth, address, phone number, etc. In order to confirm your account identity (according to them). When I told them I did not have any Amazon affiliations or Accounts and I would not give them any personal info they hanged up the phone. I called 3 times and said the same and 3 times I got hanged up on. Then I called the real Amazon customer service and made them aware of the situation and they confirmed to me that they never called people up and never ask for your personal information and if they ever need to contact you, they have other ways to do so.

An automated call contacted me and indicated that their were unauthorized charges for Amazon gift cards on my Capital One Mastercard. My card is inactive at present. The automated voice suggested that I press a number to talk to someone about these so-called charges. I ended the call immediately.

I received a call at 10:07am from a woman who said her name was Irisha Black from Amazon Customer service. she gave me her Amazon employee Id number AMZ770251 then proceeded to say that she was calling to say that there was suspicious activity on my Amazon account. that someone from Albany New York had created a second account from my original account and purchased an Apple Book Pro laptop and Apple Blu tooth device and that the package was being delivered to a place in New York. the total cost was $1537.35. she went on to explain that there were multiple accounts now from my account in Texas. all of this kept me off balance and thinking from a fear point and not on what to do when something does not sound right. when she said I had to report this to the FCC to get this cleared up and made the connection I hung up. I called Amazon and they said they never call like this. I reported this to their Fraud department.

Scammer called (it was a recording) using one of our local town numbers

Said they were Amazon and the order I placed this morning was uncertain...it was for over $1000

If I want it, hit a certain key and then I guess they would want a form of payment.

I hung up and called Amazon and they said it was definitely a scam - that they would never call and

I had no such order. So they told me to pass this info on to you. Hope it helps in some way.

Scammer called indicating a charge to my credit card was made today with Amazon.com in the amount of $1,000.00, and if this was not me to select one to stop payment. I did not make any such Amazon charge today, and since the number was a 585-402-2817 #, and I have never received a call from Amazon before; I hung up. Re-called, and a voice message indicated for me to leave a message, but the message did not say you have reached Amazon, just leave a message.

She looked up the number for Amazon Prime, and called it: 202-326-7302. They claimed to be Amazon Prime and stated that she had multiple accounts with Amazon. They had just delivered a bunch of laptops and a printer and cell phones. She had not ordered any of those and she also does not have an amazon account at all. They gave her the number to the "FTC" at 619-257-0007. She called them and gave them her SS # as well as a little information about her bank before she realized it was a scam.

I purchased pallets from Amazon on Facebook. I never received. They said I received the package. I am disabled and never leave my house. I have photos of my transactions. A guy named Kevin is now texting me from an iPhone saying I got my package. When they put up the same ad yesterday on Facebook I stated they did not ship and till this morning would not answer my messages. They removed all ads since I called them out yesterday. Something is very wrong.

I was trying to register my Amazon fire tv stick. I went to the website. Given and after following directions I was given a phone number to call. The female with a Middle Eastern accent Proceeded to talk me through the registration and gave me directions on a few steps to take. And before I knew it, she had full access to my phone and all my payment accounts. Truist, Zelle and Cash app. I expressed I was uneasy with her having access to these and she assured me it was Amazon's way of securing my account. All while giving me instructions on setting up my fire stick. All of a sudden I noticed she was controling what was on my phone and I asked her what she was doing and she hung up the phone. I then contacted my bank and put a freeze on my bank account and online banking. Uncertain of what else to do and about other accounts that she might possibly be able to access, and what to do about her having access to my phone.
