Sorry if another post appears ive asked for it to be moved, however, i need this to be sorted asap!
I used some codes in the freebie section of the forum, some of those post have now been taken down, and people have been saying how its possibly a scam.
Silly me thinking Its amazon! It will be fine!
So ive tried to cancel my orders, however, 2 of them wont cancel saying i have to contact the seller, which I have.
Im worried about what will happen, is there anything I can do to protect myself?

Why are you panicking?
You have already had over £100 worth of free stuff from Amazon according to your other thread that you started?
If Amazon has accepted a code and sent out the goods, then thats fine.I’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Competitions Time, Shopping & Freebies boards, Employment, Jobseeking & Training boards If you need any help on these boards, do let me know.

OP, perhaps, it would help others, if you explained what scamming (possibly) was involved .0
