Amazon has sent a message to its Prime subscribers warning that there has been a recent increase in scams attempting to obtain a user's login credentials and bank account details.
According to Amazon, scammers are using texts, emails and phone calls that state your account will be suspended or deleted unless you verify your details and accept a large membership fee. You are then told to verbally confirm your email, password and payment information or enter these details on a fake site in order to 'reinstate' your Amazon Prime account. None of this is legitimate and is a scam in order to acquire your personal details and banking information.
