Received a very very credible Amazon offer to purchase overstock iPhone and AirTags. I read all the fine print, reviews, etc., ordered AirTags. Paid by debit card. Received package tracking in Chinese with dates. Then after 2 weeks no package found by tracking. AD232148649VS or 240624050621925

Tried to enable amazon app on tv. Directed to site to give code. Then told my account was hacked and they would clear it out. Asked for banking info, put apps on my phone, tryask and zelle. Then they wanted my debit card info, said the 4000 dollar hack was hidden from the bank and i told them id contact the bank personally. They said the bank wont know because they are hidden. I insisted i needed to check with my bank. They hung up. I froze my debit card and changed my passwords.

A person with a heavy accent called saying he was from Amazon and that a Mac computer had been purchased and sent to New Mexico from my Amazon account. He asked what bank I banked at and would transfer me to the bank fraud account. Beware. He knew a lot about Amazon. He sounded very much like Amazon customer service rep. He then named banks I might be associated with. They wanted your bank information. I knew it was scammer and when the " fraud" department answered I said your a scammer and full of lies. He replied you're full of "[censored]". I was able to know this was a scam however I notified Amazon and my bank. Bank was wonderful. Amazon was a nightmare getting ahold of a real person. Most elderly would have fallen for this. Sad situation and I feel Amazon should investigate this as the number was given to them.

They said my sister in law Brittany Conley had purchased an Apple Computer for 1499.00 on a new created Amazon account. Then the man transferred me to my bank PNC fraud department but was a foreigner so I hung up and called my PNC bank fraud department and she said it was a fraud or scammer trying to get my account number but. I knew not to give that. I only gave name dob which I didn't want to give and zip code. They had one of my old addresses years ago. I really want to stop these people. I also kept getting calls when on the phone with my bank a phone number from North Carolina 910-810-6395 so I called it and she said she didn't call so that indicates a scammer.

I believe I am getting items from a brushing scam from Amazon. Every month I get random items that I didn't order: children's vitamins, pool cleaning tools, health supplement, etc. I reported it to amazon and they told me to just keep the items. The items are sent to me at my current address under my maiden name. I have never lived at my current address in my maiden name which is alarming. I was married 15 years ago and have only lived at this address for 2 years.

They offered a Ring product that was refurbished, it uses Amazon as a cover and IS an Amazon approved company, but they are an Unapproved retailer to sell ring products. I attempted to call Ring, they stated they could not do anything becuase it was not on thier authorized list though Amazon is. They Sold me a refurbished Ring doorbell that was still owned by someone else and have yet to be released to me. I attempted to conta t Woot, and they do not allow calls and thier email is never answered as i tried this as well and the email was returned becuase thier inbox was too full.

He said he was an associate from Amazon, and that someone tried to order some thing on my account from three or four different places And that he was calling to inform me about the situation, and wanted to know my bank account to inform them about it, which I declined to give him this information and hung up immediately.

Scammers promoted selling unsold or return merchandise from Amazon in pallets at discounted prices: "Last Chance to Order-?2022 Amazon Customer Returns Pallets Online?[Limited Stock!!!]". I ordered a "Large package" and an "electronic package". Supposedly every pallet or packet had returned electronics and merchandise (as described in photos) such as bigger electronics. I ordered on 11/26.

On 12/10 I received via USPS a small padded envelope with a toothbrush, ear pods, and some sort of "nano sprayer" all of super cheap quality and obviously junk. I didn't even realize that was the "package" so I figured those were random things that someone sent me. It wasn't until I started investigating that other people on the internet mentioned that they received the same thing. I tried to email them (no phone number) several times with no response.

I should've done some research but now I hate other people to fall into the scam.

Left message on home phone saying a purchase had been made on my Amazon account (I don't have one) of over a thousand dollars for an IMAC or something. This amount would be deducted from my account unless I contacted them.

Scammer sent a text "Order Placed - AMZ#45AA7QQ6 for Aura Wall Mounted Air Purifier Amount of $1559 will be taken out from your card. Not you? call us +18662275339"

Obviously a scam, did not call or click or respond. Much better to just check my cards online through secure websites.

I just randomly received this message. I have received one like this before, a different number, and I just blocked it. I thought it was time to see how I can report them

I went in to my Amazon account and a box came up and said "there was some suspicion activity on my account with some gift cards". I called the # and they answered the phone as Amazon. Long story short. They hacked my debit card. I called the real Amazon and they are doing an investigation. In the mean time I called the # back and they answered Amazon again. And when I told them this is not Amazon they hung up.

DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS WEBSITE!!! This is NOT an Amazon store. They are just using the Amazon logo to trick people into thinking they are legitimate. The company address is Texas, but this "merchandise" if coming from China. Many people I have spoken to have either never received the products they ordered or the products arrived damaged, were the wrong product/size, etc. They charged my debit card and I never received an email with a confirmation of my order. Their website has NO CONTACT INFORMATION at all. The phone number from their Facebook site has a busy signal 24 hours a day!!! Please beware!

My fiance and I moved into our new home in July. At the beginning if February my fiance received a flyer supposedly from Amazon offering us a $25 gift card as a welcome to the neighborhood if we call the number on the flyer. No local organization name was listed as a sponsor of the gift card so I called Amazon to ask and they said it definitely wasn't them. I gave them the phone number so they may try to block it or warn people on their end.
