The email states that someone logged into your Amazon account from an unfamiliar device. It then prompts you to \u201cCancel Here\u201d if it wasn\u2019t you.<\/p><div id=\"mwtad954500919\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_381396-ad_309691-placement_360566\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"1471373341\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This email is carefully designed to look like a legitimate security alert from Amazon. The attackers use email spoofing techniques to make it seem like the email is really from an @amazon.com address. They also include Amazon branding elements and logos to appear more authentic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The goal of the scam is to trick you into clicking on the \u201cCancel Here\u201d link. But it does not actually cancel anything. Instead, it takes you to a fake Amazon phishing site that steals your Amazon login credentials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With your username and password, the attackers can log into your real Amazon account. Once inside, they can view your personal information, shipping addresses, payment methods and order history.

Here is exactly how this scam works step-by-step:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. You Receive an Email Pretending to Be From Amazon<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first step is you receive an email with an urgent warning that someone signed into your Amazon account. The subject line usually says something like \u201cAmazon Sign-in attempt Notification Alert.\u201d<\/p><div id=\"mwtad1755063971\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_381401-ad_309691-placement_360573\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5315249587\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The email is spoofed to make it look like it is really from Amazon customer service. The sender address shown is something like <a href=\"mailto:account-update@amazon.com\">account-update@amazon.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, this is not really from Amazon. But the attackers use technical tricks to disguise the real sender address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. The Email Looks Like a Legitimate Amazon Security Alert<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you open the email, it is designed to look like an official security alert from Amazon. The email contains Amazon branding elements like logos and formatting.<\/p><div id=\"mwtad4098576958\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_381404-ad_309691-placement_381406\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"8735619847\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is to make the scam email appear as authentic as possible. The criminals behind the scam want you to think the email genuinely came from Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is what the email scam might say:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subject: Amazon Sign-in attempt Notification Alert<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">from: account-update@amazon.com<br \/>to: xxxxx<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amazon<br \/>Someone signed-in to your account.<br \/>When: March 03, 2025 02:57 PM Central European Summer Time<br \/>Device: generic web browser macOS (Desktop)<br \/>Near: Li\u00e8ge Province, Netherland<br \/>If this was you, you can disregard this message.

The Email Says Someone Logged Into Your Account<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The body of the email states that someone signed into your Amazon account from an unfamiliar device. It specifies a date, time, device, and location of the \u201cunauthorized\u201d login attempt.<\/p><div id=\"mwtad1940519730\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_360582-ad_309691-placement_360581\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"9971336976\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some examples are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>Someone signed-in to your account.\nWhen: March 03, 2025 02:57 PM Central European Summer Time  \nDevice: generic web browser macOS (Desktop)\nNear: Li\u00e8ge Province, Netherland\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is intended to make you worried that a hacker has accessed your account.

You Are Instructed to \u201cCancel Here\u201d If It Wasn\u2019t You<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After stating that someone logged into your account, the email says \u201cIf this was you, you can disregard this message.\u201d<\/p><div id=\"mwtad3082526825\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_360567-ad_309691-placement_360771\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"6224621518\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It then urges you to \u201cOtherwise, please Cancel Here.\u201d This is the key call to action to trick you into clicking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The scammers never outright ask for your password or sensitive information. Instead, they instruct you to \u201ccancel\u201d the unauthorized login.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. The \u201cCancel Here\u201d Link Goes to a Fake Amazon Phishing Site<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the most crucial step. When you click on the \u201cCancel Here\u201d link, it does NOT take you to the real Amazon website.<\/p><div id=\"mwtad1058562051\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_360571-ad_309691-placement_360772\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5867729999\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead, it goes to a sophisticated fake phishing site that mimics the real Amazon login page. This site was created by the scammers to steal your Amazon credentials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The site looks just like the real thing, with Amazon branding and web address. But any information you enter is harvested by the criminals running the scam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. You Are Tricked Into Entering Your Amazon Login Details<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you arrive at the fake Amazon login page, you will be prompted to enter your email and password to \u201ccancel\u201d the unauthorized activity.<\/p><div id=\"mwtad4059376683\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_360576-ad_309691-placement_360773\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"6594472392\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the page looks legitimate, you may trust it and enter your actual Amazon credentials.

The Attackers Gain Access and Steal Your Personal Info<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With your real login details, the criminals can now access your legitimate Amazon account. Inside your account, they can view your personal information, order history, shipping addresses and payment methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The attackers may change settings, steal identities, make unauthorized purchases and generally wreak havoc. They can also install malware, access saved websites and passwords, and compromise other linked accounts.<\/p><div id=\"mwtad1989144558\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_360583-ad_309691-placement_360774\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"8849826992\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is why it\u2019s so important not to fall for the \u201cAmazon Sign-in Attempt Notification\u201d phishing scam and enter your details on any untrusted sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad1180378141\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_309748-ad_309691-placement_360588\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"3906789406\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Do If You Have Fallen Victim to This Scam<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you unfortunately did fall for this scam and entered your Amazon credentials into the phishing site, you are at risk of identity theft and account takeover. Here are the steps you should immediately take:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Change Your Amazon Password<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad2562879551\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_360584-ad_309691-placement_360775\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"3952847241\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First and foremost, login to your real Amazon account and change your password immediately. Pick a strong, unique password to prevent any further unauthorized access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enable two-factor authentication as an extra layer of security on your account. This requires you to input a code from your mobile device whenever logging in from a new device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Review Recent Account Activity for Anything Suspicious<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Closely review all recent activity on your Amazon account. Check your order history for any fraudulent purchases you did not make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Look for any shipping address changes, added payment methods, or new account usernames that may indicate compromise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Contact Amazon Customer Service<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notify Amazon customer service that your account was compromised. They can take additional steps to secure your account and reverse any unauthorized transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can contact Amazon by live chat through your account or by phone at 1-888-280-4331. Explain that you entered your login details into a phishing site and your account may be compromised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Monitor Your Credit Card Statements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep a close eye on the credit card statements for any cards saved on your Amazon account. Look for small charges from Amazon that you don&#8217;t recognize, as scammers will often test stolen cards with small amounts first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Contact your credit card company immediately if you see any suspicious transactions. You can request to put a hold on payments from Amazon or have a new card reissued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Scan Your Computer for Malware<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The phishing site you visited could have secretly downloaded malware onto your computer. Run a full antivirus scan to check for anything malicious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also change passwords for any other sensitive accounts, like email or banking, if you accessed them from the infected device. Keep an eye out for other signs of compromised accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Report the Phishing Email<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Forward the phishing email you received to Amazon directly at <a href=\"mailto:stop-spoofing@amazon.com\">stop-spoofing@amazon.com<\/a>. You can also report phishing emails to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The more these scams are reported, the more likely action will be taken to shut them down. But thousands of innocent users still fall victim every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Increase Your Online Security Awareness<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make sure all members of your household are aware of the sneaky techniques used in phishing scams. Never enter your login information on any site you were sent to via email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Be extra cautious when contacted about account security issues unexpectedly. Use unique passwords across different accounts and enable two-factor authentication wherever possible.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad566184935\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_318930-ad_309691-placement_360589\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"3818335085\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div><h2>Is Your Device Infected?

The emails state someone logged into your Amazon account and urge you to &#8220;Cancel&#8221; the login or reset your password. It directs you to a fake website designed to steal your Amazon login credentials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does the scam email reach me?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The scammers use email spoofing techniques to make it look like the email is from Amazon customer service. The fake sender address is usually something like <a href=\"mailto:account-update@amazon.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">account-update@amazon.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why do they want my Amazon password?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With your real login info, scammers can access your Amazon account. They can then view your personal info, shipping addresses, payment methods, and order history. They may make unauthorized purchases or access other linked accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I tell if an email is really from Amazon?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Real Amazon emails will only come from an @amazon.com or @email.amazon.com address. Amazon will never ask you to verify personal information or reset your password via an unsolicited email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happens if I click the &#8220;Cancel&#8221; link?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The link sends you to a fake but realistic-looking Amazon login page to steal your credentials. Any info you enter is captured by the scammers running the phishing site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I entered my password &#8211; what should I do now?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Immediately change your Amazon password and enable two-factor authentication. Check for unauthorized account activity. Contact Amazon customer service to secure your account. Monitor your credit cards for suspicious charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I avoid falling for this scam?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Never click links in unexpected security emails. Manually navigate to amazon.com to verify any alerts. Use unique passwords for all accounts. Enable two-factor authentication when possible. And be cautious of urgent requests for personal information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I report this phishing email?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Forward any scam emails to Amazon directly at <a href=\"mailto:stop-spoofing@amazon.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">stop-spoofing@amazon.com<\/a>. You can also report them to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov. Reporting these scams helps protect other customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"mwtad3063607433\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_381392-ad_309691-placement_381395\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"2944237110\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The \u201cAmazon Sign-in Attempt Notification Alert\u201d is a devious phishing scam targeting Amazon customers worldwide.

Report the email as phishing instead. Only enter your sensitive information on amazon.com or in the official mobile app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Be wary of any unexpected security alerts.
