Amazon allows criminals to operate on their website to target their Prime paying customers. I was scammed by one of these cons. I blame Amazon for not screening their sellers therefore making their customers vulnerable. I lost $461.

I have an Amazon prime subscription. Amazon signed me up for a Starz subscription without my knowledge and has been charging me without my knowledge since Nov 2020. I contacted Amazon and cancelled the subscription as well as received a refund but only for the past 12 months. This is not the only case of this happening as I only become aware of it. After someone posted a TikTok video about their experience with the same thing.

Seller sold me a gold necklace via amazon, the necklace did not fit my wife so I returned it. To my surprised the seller claimed that I had returned a fake necklace, then kept my money and the necklace. My wife and kids are my witnesses and I am willing to go public with this. Seller must be scamming many other people out there and this must be stopped.

I ordered a set of 4 tires for my vehicle from Simple Tire via Amazon on November 4, 2022. On November 13, I received a notification from FedEx that my order was delivered to the tire installation shop. I then called the place to schedule the installation, but they were not able to find the tires that I ordered. The same day, I contacted the seller via the Amazon messaging system, and the seller replied "If the installer does not have the tires, request you to please file a report with your local Law Enforcement agency and provide us the police report". Before going to the local police station to file the report, I decided to visit the installation shop to see whether or not they were giving me the correct information. When I arrived, they told me the same thing they said over the phone, until I asked them to find the order by the shipping label. After about 10 minutes of going through piles of tires, they found my tires but the tires were not what I ordered from Amazon. Not even by the slightest bit. The tires I received are either for heavy machinery or trucks. When I was navigating through Amazon APP to contact the seller, I found countless reviews by Amazon customers claiming that they experienced the very same incident with this very seller, Simple Tire. I genuinely cannot understand what the seller's benefiting from shipping the wrong items to buyers, but it's apparent that they're purposely doing it for a reason. ?I managed to receive prepaid labels, but I had to drive to the installation place again (in my current worn-out tires), pick up the tires, affix the shipping labels, and drop them off at FedEx because the seller never even considered paying extra for a pickup request. I am very frustrated and upset that I had to go through such a darndest experience. I truly don't understand how a seller like this has been and still is getting away without Amazon intervening to stop the fraudulent activity. The seller's listings are STILL active.

the website was a URL pnishing acct using Amazon per my virus protection warning, during login I have a 2 verification that sends to my phone as a text, which never happened, message on screen said wait 1 minute before requesting another verification , then it took me to a screen that said to recover your 2 step verification click link here and the to upload a id, or a picture to confirm my identity recovery which was a RED FLAG.. I didnot follow thru. Also before the Amazon website https bar appeared, a quick website menu appear quickly it read IL.yahoo another RED FLAG or something similar then the Amazon website appeared on the menu bar, with a replica of the amazon site to log in, only difference I saw the welcome with my name, was at the top left, but normally this welcome would be on the top right. Another RED FLAG.

I bought $900 worth of amazon gift cards for myself. I tried to use them & they were no good. I called Amazon many, many times to get a refund in my account or replacement gift cards to bad ones.

They said they already refunded me in my account. I did not receive any refund of my $900. Nor did I receive replacement gift cards.

I bought my gift cards from the 888-280-****. They were used gift card numbers. I want my money back. I used my son's debit card to buy them. My debit had not arrived yet.

This was emailed to me fraudulently from Amazom.com. I just got off the phone with Amazon, and they said I was good and I got info that an IPhone 12 was not ordered from my account. I also reported this fraud to Amazon and they'll also post this attempt to their services. The order ID: 7675-0098-2215. Shipping address to: 3198 Milltown Rd., Wilmington, DE, 19808, USA. The helpline is listed on this spam as 805.534.7555. There is also an additional number to call if needing assistance regarding this order: 206.479.2390.

This is nothing but a scam and DO NOT fall for this bogus [censored]e.

Type of a scam Debt Collections

I received a call allegedly from Amazon.com claiming I owed Amazon $1956.37. The phone number was both on my caller ID and in the message. // I am a regular Amazon customer and, based on experience, know that Amazon simply adjusts invoicing errors directly without calling me to say I owe money. That is why I called BBB.

Type of a scam Phishing

I received a call on my cell phone from a robot telling me there was a large amount of money (over$1000), that was charged to my Amazon.com account, and would be deducted from my payment source if I did not cancel the purchase by clicking 2 to be connected to an agent. I pressed 1, and was connected to someone with a very thick foreign accent, who told me to go to www.anyweb.com to allow them remote access to my computer, so they could sort this out for me.

Due to the accent, as well as the instructions to allow remote control of my computer, I assumed it must be some kind of scam, and checked my accounts to se that there was no such charge anywhere. I then contacted Amazon Support by chat, and they said the same thing, that it was not Amazon who called you, plus there were no recent charges to my Amazon account.

This is a frightening scam they are pulling here, and needs to be shut down, like many such scams that these types of people use to hurt people during the lockdown!!

I am a victim of "Amazon Brushing".... I keep receiving packages from Amazon of random items I did not order... These packages have my name and address on them. I have reported this to Amazon 3 times now, and they basically do nothing about it, but tell me they have sent it to their investigation team and will get back with me in 10 days. They never get back with me. Amazon being a multi billion dollar business needs to protect our identity better! Our names, addresses, and phone numbers, should not be getting out to third-party sellers. I have changed my password on amazon 3 times! I'm tired of reporting stuff to Amazon and nothing being done about it... I want a federal investigation done on the Brushing Scam. I want Amazon to be held liable if for any reason my bank account get hit for charges for any of these random items I am being sent that I did not place an order for.

Someone called and said that they were amazon.com and that someone had made $400 purchase on my account. They wanted to know if I had made this purchase and that if I hadn't I should press 1. If you pressed one and told them that you hadn't made the purchase they then wanted to help you cancel the order. To do this they needed access to your account and your personal information.

On Dec. 21, 2020 after 11 a.m. I got on Amazon.com and opened my account to subscribe for Amazon Prime Video channel. I made the purchase and got the first month free, to be billed after 30 days at $17.99 a month for the service. I then proceeded to activate the channel on my Roku TV device. The code I was given to use to activate the service would not work. While my account was still open I then found a phone number for help on the official Amazon site. The man who took my call gave me his name which I did not write down. He assisted me with activation of the Prime channel from about 11:55a.m. to about 12:29 p.m. but had no success so at that time he told me he was getting tech assistance for me and immediately a man who said he was Rick got on the phone and began to help me at 12:29p.m. He told me numerous things to do on my computer in an attempt to activitate Prime and soon told me he had to take control of my computer. He kept telling me what to clik on and then he remarked that my computer had scamming sites on it and he had to clean them up. He got me connected to the Prime channel and I opened the channel to assure it was working and it was. He said he had something to do and he would call me back. Within a short time he called me. Rick told me my Amazon recent orders look legitimate but for me to check the orders on my Amazon account to make sure they were legitimate. I did and they were correct. Later he remarked about the $100.00 I had on my account and asked what that was for. I told him I would use it to buy books for my Kindle. Rick told me that completing "this" on my computer would take some time and he needed me to check my bank account now to make sure it had not been hacked and I foolishly did as I was told. I asked Rick if he was aware that I was going to immediately call my bank about this and he said yes, that he did. He said he needed to hang up but he needed me to help him by watching a movie on Prime for him so I could tell him how the channel was working. Rick had asked me for my credit card number and sometime later he asked for the "number" on the back. Rick said he would call me back and check on how the channel is working. As soon as Rick hung up I phoned my bank and was told my accounts were all fine but that this man was a scammer. I said, "but he works for Amazon, I called their help number for assistance and this last man, Rick did give me some code numbers eventually that activated my Prime video channel." The bank employee told me to shut off my computer and report to my credit card issuer right now, which I did. I learned that someone had just attempted to charge $1,000 to my card. I have e-mail that I can forward to you that shows this man tried to make gift card purchases to be sent to 2 unknown people. I had my Amazon account removed and reported this to 'Frank' at the number Rick was calling me from; 888-699-1710. Frank said the number I called was Amazon and seemed shocked and said they will investigate this.

I went to log into my Amazon account to place an order and a box popped up that said there was an issue with my account and to call them. I placed the call and they convinced me to purchase a couple of gift cards. I did and then realized this was a scam.
