The Anonymous Widower

Fraud from Russia Concerning Amazon

I have had a lot of e-mails purporting to say that I have ordered something on Amazon.  I know they are not genuine orders, as they come to an e-mail I never use for orders, but watch for e-mails.

They are baed on a fake AMazon web site, with a Russian domain name.

Be careful, as if you are a regular Amazon purchaser, your account has a valid credit card.

So login to the real Amazon, change your password and if you can, change your e-mail to something that you reserve for purchases over the web.

  1. This is a good advice. I have even resort to blocking all traffic from Russia and neighbouring countries. According to reports, almost 70% of phishing frauds originate from there.

    Nice advice BTW 🙂
