1-888-293-0442 Amazon Order Confirmation Scam

Below is an Amazon order confirmation email asking potential victims to call the fake Amazon technical or customer support: 1-888-293-0442. The scammers trick potential victims into calling them by claiming they have made an order when no such order was placed. If potential victims call 1-888-293-0442, they will only be contacting the scammers, who will request their account credentials, personal and financial information. If the potential victims give the scammers the requested information, the scammers will use it fraudulently.
