Amazon Your Order Has Been Cancelled‏ Phishing Scam

The email message below with the subject "Your Order Has Been Cancelled," is a phishing scam that is being sent by scammers and not by Amazon. The scam was designed to steal Amazon users' username and password, by attempting to trick them into clicking on the link within it, which will take them to fake Amazon web page. The fake web page will then ask Amazon users to sign-in with their username and password. But, any information entered on the fake web page will be sent to the cyber-criminals behind the scam, who will use it to hijack the victims' accounts.

It is recommended that Amazon customers go directly to www.amazon.com to sign into their accounts, instead of clicking on a link in an e-mail message.

Actually, I opened the first email that I received. I got a message that said my computer had a virus and I should call Apple at a certain number that really wasn't Apple's number. I called Apple support to help me get the message off my screen. I don't understand how these emails are getting through to my inbox. They are not in my address book.

I got one yesterday. They also spell cancelled with one "l", so that's a sign to look for.

Jul 4, 2017 at 7:29 AM by an anonymous user from: Amstelveen, North Holland, Netherlands

I am receiving one in my spam every day, quite annoying. Indeed spelled with just one "l"

What I would like to know is what is being done about it. I receive the stupid email several times a day. Have forwarded it to Amazon a couple of times.

It is very hard to stop spam or malicious email messages, therefore, we recommend flagging the emails as spam or junk so that they are automatically placed in your Spam/Junk folder.
