Order details and invoice in attached file.

We hope to see you again soon. Amazon.co.uk

Just a heads up:

I did not order anything form Amazon? What is this? Click the link = You been scammed / downloaded a Trojan or whatever other nasty trick they are pulling.

I added [EMAIL="jhn_rennie@yahoo.co.uk"]jhn_rennie@yahoo.co.uk[/EMAIL] to my blocked senders list but it is probably just a spoof address.


I got matching set from "Bank Support" <LOL> how pathetic is that?

@yahoo.co.uk would be all I needed to know this was bogus. Plus the fact that Amazon NEVER send attachments.

I've been getting courier and Amazon ones for the last few weeks now, today I got one from Booking.com, that's a new one on me.

Yes, I've had loads of these today and had odd ones the past few weeks.

I guess with Christmas coming up, the scammers know that there will be lots of people ordering from Amazon so they are clearly in extreme phishing mode at the moment.

The emails contain viruses so just delete.

Deep_In_Debt

I've also had a few allegedly from Parcelforce as well.

I had 2 of them today and a Royal Mail one too.

Nice_Weather_For_Ducks

Getting loads of these today, and at a private domain & email address that I have only used to sign up to MSE!!!

Hmmmmm

Amazon are aware, if you go onto their help site they have a message at the top warning about these emails.
