Fake account-service.com Emails Being Sent by Scammers
Fake account-service.com Emails Being Sent by Scammers

I have received 20 emails which appear to have been sent from account-service.com. The email below is just one of them that claims my Amazon Pay account information needs to be reviewed. But, the thing is, I do not have an Amazon Pay account. I also got an email from appleid@account-service.com, which claims that there was a suspicious transaction on my account. But, again I do not have an Apple account, and Apple would never send emails from account-service.com.

Therefore, I would recommend that online users look out for fake emails from account-service.com.
