Hi,
I decided to start a thread so you can share any scams/ phishing attempts you come across related to Amazon… anything you find that helps others stay safe 
My first scam to share is this phishing message - a new way of trying to trick you, beware and don’t click on any links!
Good idea. I like it 
Ohh , I received something similar from "Royal Mail "
I get quite a few of these phishing scams. This one came from USPS in the Philippines 
A good friend of mine and a well-known member of this community just found out that someone has created a company in the UK under his own details (same name, same address). How is this possible? How can we verify if anyone is using our details? How can we avoid this? He mentioned that he only sent his documents and details to Amazon and no one else.
Yesterday, I had a look at my Experian account and saw a few alerts that my details are being sold online. I was like, what the heck?
Experian is good as you can set alerts, however some banks report to them some to equifax and some to transunion so the only way to know is use this service I ask all my clients to do. FREE for first 30 days then monthly fee applies, if you can be cheeky and say that you want to cancle before 30 days they wil offer same for less price hahahah.
Affiliate link here https://www.checkmyfile.partners/36TLP7D/2CTPL/ this report is good that it shows all credit agencies and any activity that has happend on your account
This is a common breach of information. We don’t know if it is from Amazon or from your bank accounts or websites and apps that you have subscription. Most of these digital platforms have 3rd party service providers who handles customer’s data and informations and this is where the breach happen.
It’s easy to create a similar company online … even a space here or there would be able to do it . same as creating a new similar brand that lot of people do …
Do i still need experia if i have an account on checkmyfiles?
Amazon requires our details to be listed on our store fronts so l’m not surprised. We have to stay on top of this. You can set alerts up across all the credit reporting agencies.
