Thats is the email they are sending. I have received about 5 by now. If you see email just flag it.
I don't have an Amazon Prime subscription but thanks for sharing I will let my family and friends know.
There’s also a phone call scam about amazon, here’s part of the email from our local police.
The scam, which we first reported on in October 2019, involves victims receiving an automated call, informing them that they have been charged for an Amazon Prime subscription.
They are subsequently instructed to ‘press 1’ to cancel the transaction. When they do this, they are directed to a fraudster posing as an Amazon customer service representative.
The fraudster advises the victim that the subscription was purchased fraudulently and that remote access to their computer is required in order to fix a security flaw that will prevent it from reoccurring.
