Definitely one of those typical scams from Amazon, with some bloke from India on the line!

Got a call from someone pretending to be from Amazon security, but the woman on the line hardly spoke any English which made it really hard to understand her. Took me ages just to figure out what she was trying to say. Then I remembered Amazon usually know your name, but these scammers don’t, so my go-to move is asking who they want to talk to first.

The call came from a number with a foreign accent and lots of noise in the background. I ended the call right away.

No voicemail, just a silent call - definitely a scam.

Had a call from someone saying they were with Amazon. They told me there was a suspicious attempt to buy something using my account and asked me to check my emails. I asked if he knew my name, and to my surprise, he did. I told him straight up it was a scam and that if he wanted to keep chatting, it wouldn't get him anywhere. Next thing, he just ended the call!

My landline is constantly bombarded with junk calls, so this is probably another one. When I answered, there was silence and then they just disconnected after about 30 seconds.

Got a suspicious call on my home number from someone pretending to be Amazon. They said I had a charge of £740 for an order I supposedly made. The caller tried hard to get my bank and phone info. I kept messing about and pretending to be clueless just to keep them on the line. Ended up wasting about 5-6 minutes before I finally just hung up on them!

The guy was talking super quick, all I managed to pick up was something about Amazon security. Told him to speak slower and then suddenly he hung up on me. I checked out the number and found this site... total scammer, what a bunch of scoundrels.

My phone showed this number when it rang. I picked up but nobody spoke, and after about 15 seconds the other side just hung up.

Some bloke rang me saying he was the Head of Security at Amazon, claiming there was a pricey camera bought on my account that might’ve been the work of a hacker. He told me he’d emailed me details and wanted me to check my inbox. Naturally, I hadn’t got anything from him. Then he started talking about showing me the “events log” on my PC, which sounded dodgy, so I just hung up.

This morning, sometime around 9 to 9:30 (9th January 2024), I got a call from this number. The person claimed to be from Amazon Security, saying there was a fraud attempt on my Amazon account, like someone tried to buy stuff using it. When I questioned him about it, he just hung up on me.

Got a call from some guy saying he was Alex from Amazon Security - yeah, like I’m gonna just hop on my computer for them! These scammers are already back at it just days after Christmas, it's only the 27th. And don’t even get me started on TPS rules, they couldn’t care less about following them. Total scam alert!

Got a call on my home phone and I just let it ring out. Pretty sure it was one of those annoying spam calls. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.
